So I have some pretty decent headphones. I am no audiophile, but I can describe the experience.

With a pair of quality headphones, you get a new sense of location that you wouldn't get otherwise. Not just right or left, but how far right or left. You will hear things in songs you didn't notice before because they were too compressed by cheap headphones. You will actually hear the bass player. You will get a new appreciation for proper production.

I really recommend getting a pair of good headphones if you like music.
