Definitely go for the triple-fi's....this is one pair of phones that sounds very nice right out of an iPod...seriously, get a friend to help you with some blind tests and I'll bet you'll be willing to sell your amp to recoupe some of the $$$ spent on the triple.fi's...
Here is an interesting (not to be taken too seriously) thread that I started a while back that basically points out that in my entire head-fi journey, I got the biggest increases in SQ when I upgraded headphones.
The Point of Diminishing Returns
