Just to clarify, your budget is more than $400? Also, you may use standard iems for sports application but there are also those sports specific iems that are more robust in design. If you are using them for running outdoors, you might need to be able to hear the surroundings(safety) as apposed to running on a treadmill?

It should sound great right off the box. After a week of you listening to IM70, it will be burn in anyway

How about JVC FX3X, Fischer Audio Consonance V.2 or AKG K350? I have linked our website here for your reference. You can also audition the demo sets in either of our stores.
