I have the 211's and just ordered the 805AE's. Give me another week or two and I'll have both to compare. My GUESS is that the 805AE's will be sweeter sounding because of their SET design. Plus, the 805's allow 845 or 211 tube options.
Be aware of the nice upgrades Cary offers on the 805's (and other products). I went for all three upgrades.
SET usually trumps PP....but not always.
