Following my last post this video kind of emphasises what I was saying.
Another video with the same person explaining what I have been speaking about

Hi James,
Very interesting, especially as I only use headphones

Yes as mentioned before we might use a lot of reverb at home when using headphones to create some atmosphere for particular sound(s). But if you was to record a play these sounds through a speaker system or your car it would probably sound like your drowning in reverb (way too wet).
The point the videos make is making the sound good whatever device you’re using, be it laptop speakers, cheap headphones or hi end speaker system.
You when using arranger keyboard with effects, compressor’s etc etc we kind of obsess about the actual numbers within the parameters.
What if you couldn’t actually see the parameters with in a Eq just dials or sliders.
You would then have to rely more on your hearing and what does this dial do, or what does that slider do?
Like Andrew says learning to use your hearing is most important a listen to what each parameter does how it changes what your sound(s).
Just as when balancing your sounds how everything sits together.

This man knows what he's talking about.
I have only heard through a little of what he says, but he is very clear.
In general, it can be said that the big difference between headsets and speakers is acoustics and details - headsets reproduce acoustics poorly, and details brilliantly.
Loudspeakers (can) reproduce acoustics brilliantly, and details far worse.
If you mix everything perfectly with a headset, you will always find that the 100Hz-6kHz range gets a higher level with speakers because acoustics are added.
Vocals in particular are affected, precisely because these have their presence in this area.
In my case this becomes even clearer, because I use horn speakers, which add a few extra dB acoustically in the same area.
This means that I have to pay special attention when using headsets, even if I use some of the best - ALL headsets reproduce acoustics incorrectly, because this has to be added artificially.
This again means that all mixing done with headsets can only be considered as basic work, and that this must always be tested with speakers at the end to give a guaranteed result.
In the end, it's the amount of each individual instrument's characteristic (read; acoustics) which determines how authentic the sound will be.
Put another way, you should be able to hear that a violin is a Stradivarius, and not just any violin.
