I recently purchased a new set of headphones and follwed Zeos advice of sticking them in a drawer and playing various types of music through them for a week to 'burn them in'. Whether this is actually a thing or not, I'm not sure, I think that the small, tight, muffled sound that I heard when I first listened to them has improved and they have 'opened up'.
