Below I posted before and after of a clip of the mix. I can hear that the original sounds terrible in my monitors but if I hadn't listened with my earbuds I would never have known to change it.

Sample 2: Before
Sample 1: After

I'm have to disagree with your ear buds. I don't hear the after sample as improvement. I doesn't sit quite as nice and the voice sounds proportionally far bigger then the rest of the mix. If you added a quarter of the lows you put in I would be in agreement.
