Audio balance in new headset

So I recently picked up a new headset (since my old one broke), and they seem to be working great. Problem is, the bass on them sounds really loud and unbalanced. Most likely balanced for heavy percussive sounds (gunshots, explosions) as it was marketed as a gaming headset.

The model is a Plantronics Gamecom 377, and other than the sound balance, they work great.

On the other hand, I'm not sure if these new ones are properly balanced and my old set just lacked quality bass. I'm not a hardcore audiophile, but I prefer my headphones not to come with a preset bass chug setting that makes everything else sound tinny.

Is there any (relatively easy) way of testing the audio balance? Preferably without buying any expensive equipment. I'd like to find a simple process that I can just test by ear, but I suppose that might not be possible.
