The Gilmore Lite was a very affordable DynaLo design but sadly discontinued by HeadAmp and replaced by their much more expensive GS-1.
After digging around I found another affordable DynaLo still being manufactured - the Sheer Audio HA-006+ available in two flavours. Dr. Kevin Gilmore, who designed the original DynaLo specifically for Grados, owns one and said, "I like it a lot." Hmmm...
One of the best "wire with gain" headamps that pairs up very well with Grados is the Gilmore Lite.
It has been recently discontinued to make way for the more expensive, improved Headamp GS-1.
The Lite can regularly be found used for about $250 on Head-Fi.
I have this setup and it is one of the best low buck dynamic rigs that I have heard.
For comparison I also have a LD-III and used to own the M-Stage.
Both are decent amps, but again the Gilmore Lite is superb with Grados.
Just my 2cents.
