As an update I fully modded the SR-325is's today. I removed the badge, epoxied the back of the driver, and added foam damping to the walls of ear cup (thin slices, but very dense).
A transformation! Bass is even tighter and gone is most the signature edgieness of the SR-325is's. Granted they are stll very bright, but now are toned down a little bit. Mids also seem more forward now.
So how does it sound amped? Great!! The mods really helped tame the treble and edgieness while making bass tighter and mids fuller. The Roc amp even shows this more buy tightening the bass further.
Man I recommend you guys do these mods to all your Grado's!!

I vote for px100

PX100 is cheap enough, I'll do that one first. Then the DT231.

I opted for the Koss UR40. The PX100 is next.
So far the UR40 sounds pretty good with good clarity ad detail alond with clear mids and great bass. A good improvement in the end.
Will post pictures later.
UPDATE #2:
I fully recabled the PortaPro and it sounds really good. The new cable helped a lot.
