I'm a big fan of my SR60i. Really love the sound signature.
Now.. If I would climb up the grado ladder, which one should I pick to get the same sound signature but have more refinement?
I've heard that the RS2i is much closer to the sound sig of the SR60i then the SR225i & SR325is. Is this true?
I can't test them out so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The RS line sounds quite different from the cans in the SR line.  Jump to either the Alessandro MS1 if you want to tame the highs a bit, or to the SR 225 if you prefer to head to the sweet spot of the SR line.

I know I'm a bit late to the show, but I made the jump from SR60i to SR2i because I thought the RS2i sounded more like the SR series than the RS1i and SR335i.  
 
The only cans I even considered were the SR225i and the RS2i as the others just didn't sound right to my ears, and the SR80i just wasn't a significant upgrade after having extensively modded my SR60i. The SR225i seemed more excited than the RS2i which would probably be better for rock music, but I couldn't resist the RS2i's fluid mids and better bass extension.

Well, the new cans would only be used for rock. For allround I have my HD598 and for bass I'm looking at the Denon AH-D2000. I don't really believe in the 'allround best headphone' (not at this pricepoint anyways.
So SR225i it is? And does it sound good with the flatpads? I really like the close sound with the stock SR60i flat pads.
