Hi, weird request. I really like the creative aurvana live but I want IEM because over the ear makes my ears warm, and are uncomfortable because I wear glasses.
 
That being said, what are some IEM in the $50~$100 range that sound similar to the CAL? I'm talking open sound stage, clear mids, with less emphasis on bass. 
 
thanks in advance!

The Brainwavz M2 gets close.

I have heard both and currently own the M2.

Here are some charts. Pay particular attention to the frequency response curves and how similar they are to each other.

The Brainwavz M2 can be found for under $90, but I highly recommend some Comply T-400 foam tips to go with them as the stock tips allow the shell to hit the skin making them quite uncomfortable. The sound improves as well.
