I'll be interested in how you go.
I was considering getting an equivalent to your current setup once I get my observatory up and going (which is close now), but like you I'll have lots of light pollution to deal with. If the lower read noise and better QE of the ICX814 is worth it over the KAF8300, then I'll have to seriously consider that as an option.
Unlike you I don't have the restriction of having a set of expensive filters already, so the Atik One 9.0 looks good, since it takes the smaller 1.25" filters, hence that will save me a bit of cash relative to buying 36mm ones. I want 3nm. Just wish it wasn't only a 5 filter wheel. Hmm
