What are your favorite IEMs to use for gaming or movie watching?

While for music using something like Etymotic, KPE or No 3 is great, for movies and games I need a sound as open as possible with decent bass rumble and good positioning. So far my favorites are:
AKG Samsung earbuds- decent clarity and dynamics, great soundstage and positioning, could use more refinement though
E4000- Great immersive open sound, good positioning that goes quite deep, could use a bit more highs to hear all the details and voices in movies could be clearer
Toneking TK12- Very open sound with a big dynamic bass, average tonality with enjoyable sound but shallow layering
FH5- they may appear to have a closer sound then the others, but I find the distant sounds to go almost as far as the E4000, combined with excellent positioning and clarity makes for a good gaming set
Honorable mentions Sony-N3, ZS10 Pro, CCA C10

So, what is your go to IEM?

I don’t use iems for this but I think the iBasso IT01’s would be a candidate.
