Looking for IEMs to use with my Grado SR-125s

I own some Grado SR-125 headphones which I love dearly and use many hours per day when i'm studying or relaxing or just dozing off or w/e.

However, in the mornings I deliver newspapers, and sometimes i go running, and unfortunatly i can't really use my Grado headphones at those times...

So i am looking for some IEMs under... i'm gonna try to stay under $80

Since I use my Grado SR-125s the rest of the time, I am looking for some IEMs that will... not throw me off to badly... i guess IEMs closest to the "Grado sound" that i've come to know and love.

obviously i'm not going to find anything in this price range that will sound as good as my SR125s but this is what i've been looking at:

Amazon.com: Koss CC_01 Isolation Earbud Stereophone (Red/Gray): Home Audio & Theater

Amazon.com: Grado iGi In-Ear Headphones: Electronics

Amazon.com: Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220 Noise Isolating Earphones: Home Audio & Theater

Amazon.com: JVC HAFX66W Air Cushion Headphones (White): Electronics

Amazon.com: Creative EP-630 In-Ear Headphones (New, Non-Retail OEM Packaging): Electronics

Amazon.com: Shure E2c Sound Isolating Earphones: Electronics

Amazon.com: Etymotic Research ER6i Isolator In-Ear Earphones (Black): Electronics

cheaper the better - i'm looking for the best bang for the buck...

Klipsch Image S4. More bass than Grado, but along the same lines.

I looked at those, and they looked good except I thought that my Grado's bass might sound weak in comparison while those would sound too muddy in comparison to the Grados. make sense? or do you think the difference isn't that big?
