Could someone help me i just got new ATH-m50's but...

i really was eager to see their true potential,when i first try them they sounded GLORIOUS but i got greedy, so i attempted to burn them in. first i played my music at a slightly higher listening volume for about 4 hours, then i did pink noise for about 10 hours, at a slightly higher than listening volume (im not sure tho, cause i usually don't listen to static for fun), and now when i play them they sound terrible!? do i need to burn them in some more? or did i mess them up by unknowingly adjusting the pink noise volume too high, please help, i dont like the sound! everything sounds so unclear and muddy!

 
thanks for any help in advance

Sure you haven't just forgot some EQ setting on or something? They shouldn't sound muddy and unclear with time, but you could always hope that they get clearer with time. I don't think you broke them unless your pink noise was very loud. From my experience, those headphones can go louder than I could take - and I have a small hearing loss.

Try plugging them to a different source.

There was a period during burn-in during which I didn't like the sound of my M50s. Keep hanging in there.
