No, but they influence how you percieve them. Okay, I think I overstated my case. Of course the information that was mastered onto each stereo track is of primary importance. For headphones, I think the actual design of each phone would be next in the order of importance. This would include the particular design of the drivers, the design of the housing, and the materials used as well. That would be why there is a Grado sound, an AKG sound, and a Sennheiser sound.
I think Headwise still has some interesting treatises on headphone theory that might be of interest to you..
