So i decided to get the grado sr 225 i and they are coming home! Just a question ill probably either pick up like a fiio e6 or e11. Im going to buy the line out cable for that. Do i also need one of those 1/4 to 1/8 adapters (i think those are the sizes). To plug into the amp or ipod itself sometimes.

I think there will be a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter included.  I'm not sure what you will be using as your source but you should be able to use a line out.  Why not get a real DAC?

The Grado 225i's do not come with an adapter; it's 1/4" only.
 
And I'm not sure if the E6 or E11 come with a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter.
 
Even if you do get an adapter with the E6 or E11, it's definitely worth a step up to get a better connecting cable
than the one which is supplied with either of those amps.
 
Amazon sells it.  http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-L2-3-5mm-Stereo-Cable/dp/B003UCC78I/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1325272054&sr=1-3
 
And the adapter, made by Grado, can be bought on Amazon too.

Other adapters are also available, such as: http://www.amazon.com/Generic-3-5mm-Adapter/dp/B003VGRDUK/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1325272313&sr=1-3
