So I listened to the remaster all the way through at work. I have cheap headphones there. I think they're meant for gaming, the sound quality isn't too bad, and I'm pretty sure they cost under $30...anyway. The tracks actually sounded really good on them, everything was evenly balanced and I didn't really notice the extra reverb or boosted bass. I'm not really sure what that says about the new masters to be honest, since all those problems were pretty obvious on my good studio headphones (I still haven't listened to all of the tracks on them yet), and even to an extent on my iPhone speaker, but I still like how they sound overall despite the flaws. Space and clarity in a mix is a good thing, and I think they did a pretty good job making sure you could hear all the instruments and vocal tracks and not having it feel squashed.
