I am already hearing a difference from letting them burn in for about 10 hours straight at probably about 25% higher volume than I'd ever listen at. This morning I no longer feel the need for the narrow 3dB cut at 5k, and instead of cutting the bass by 6dB, right now I only have it cut 3dB and it sounds good like this. I've sampled about a dozen or so songs listening at 40-47% volume on my Galaxy S4 and they already sound a ton better.
At 40% and slightly lower volume I could easily get used to using these with no EQ. This is of course due to our own hearing and the fact that at a lower volume a bit more bass is favorable. It's a loudness contour type thing. So that can be another factor that decides if you think these are bass heavy or not.
Believe it. Burn in is the S5's best friend
When you get to around 100 hours or so, the signature really levels out quite a bit, still warm, but much better balanced. Everyone on here who hasn't gotten to at least 100 hours burn in haven't heard that yet...patience young padawan's, good things come to those who burn
