Not at all, I'm not saying you can't hear the difference between a cheap and expensive set of headphones on Polyphia songs, but the difference will be less noticable than on some other songs because of how it's mixed. Polyphia produces more for cheap Bluetooth speakers than hifi setups.
I feel that if you want to test a set of headphones or speakers properly, you shouldn't test them with something that's made to sound good on anything. Find something recorded with high quality gear and mixed with minimal processing and the differences will be much clearer. Bad gear will sound worse, but great gear will sound amazing.
That's the point of hifi, right? Produce sound as transparently as possible, so that each tiny little detail will sound like it's coming from the room, then trust the musicians and mastering engineers to do the rest

I agree with his points also
this is the main reason i use my HD-58X for most of the music I listen to, and use HD-8XX when the music is well mastered. The HD-58X make everything sound nice, while my HD-8XX don't like poorly mastered tracks.
