I don't know what are you mixing on (I presume though it's a pair of relatively cheap headphones), but on my monitors it sounds less detailed than a raw mix, especially in the low end range.
I mix on a pair of KRK Rokits in a small room with basic acoustic treatment.
Mix was probably the wrong word as this is also an attempt at basic mastering too.
Do you think a lot of the detail is lost through over-compression or does it sound more like an eq problem?
I do struggle quite a bit with low end, never really sure what to look out for and usually just end up scooping chunks out of the midrange.
