I have a friend who uses and likes the Go-Vibe v5 with his SR225s. That amp is no longer in production, but you could look into the Go-Vibe Pettite, which also comes with a DAC.

I suggest the mini3 for a portable amp, and a Corda Headfive for home use.

For Grado cans the Mapletree Ear + Purist HD is an excellent match. Some would say a perfect match!

Right now there is an used unit for sale at about $420 in the for sale forum, if you can afford it buy it.
