Grados are the farthest thing from neutral you could probably come up with...if you're going to be mixing, would a studio 'phone, like the AKG k241, make sense? Most studio monitors are so neutral folks think they're "boring" or lack bass, but mixing and whatnot is exactly what they're made for.
Yeah if I was going for Grado's I would be going for the Alessandro MS-1's. Is airy good for mixing? It doesn't give a false impression of stereo width does it?
As for amps, I've got a Mackie 402VLZ3. Their most basic mixer, I think it has 500 ohm impedance, so that should be fine right?
Yeah that was my definition of no sound stage, that's sort of what it sounded like to me. Is there a compromise between useful studio cans and something enjoyable for films etc?
I recommend you to try them first at the shop,it's impossible to know if you like the tonal balance unless you listen to them! And try as many as you can.
Do not worry, you will find something. I could not believe how much I disliked the Grado 60s. Lucky the store gave me credit when they came back for a return.
