Good article! I do a lot of "pre-mixing" on studio headphones, but mixing is never finished without monitors. I like my last pass at mixing to be on monitors at low (barely audible) volume to ensure I don't miss an imbalance that isn't as evident at high volumes. Am also sensitive to head placement when monitor mixing as my monitors are relatively close. Here's a pic on monitor placement from a Sound on Sound article.
