For IEMs*, you can review and compare these options, than select based on your individual preferences.*
Here is my suggestions:
[TANGZU Wan'er S.G Dynamic Driver IEMs](https://www.headphonezone.in/products/tangzu-waner-s-g?variant=42845633642684) or [7HZ x Crinacle Zero: 2 10mm Dynamic Driver In-Ear Monitor](https://www.headphonezone.in/products/7hz-x-crinacle-zero-2) or [Truthear GATE Dynamic Driver In-Ear Monitors](https://www.headphonezone.in/products/truthear-gate)
for FLAC i highly recommend apple music
KZ iems are reasonably priced and easily accessible in my country (South Africa 🇿🇦) and I will always say its been a great experience thus far. I'm willing to hear different opinions by gladly receiving people's iems sent to me free of charge 😂😂😂.
The cost of living is far too high to buy anything outside of some the KZ iems (for most people in this country affording groceries is a blessing so I'm lucky).
To be fair I have been blessed enough to snag moondrop chu 2 and wan'er SG (1) on sale but outside the sales I would not be able to afford them.
I can get the sentiment around KZ when you have more options at similar price points bur they are still better than what few affordable audio options we have.
TL;DR : KZ all the way, until I get my hands on more money or more iems.
Castor Pro (Silver) might be touch bit brighter (abit more leaning towards neutral bright) than the OG Castor Silver, OG Silver seems to have a little bit more smoother sound experience than the Pro Silver.
OG Silver, even in FR graphs is more versatile from neutral bright to a Mild-V warm-ish tuning.
On the Tangzu Wan'er SG 1, yes its really warm and chill sound experience, though same with your guess it sounded abit too relaxed. Wan'er SG 2 changed that, so you can definitely go for that one as well.
If you like bass, then Castor Bass definitely. Imaging wise its better than Tangzu Wan'er SG 1, though male vocals gets drowned, female vocals does not get affected as much.
This based on my own personal experience on all 3

Though in the end, these are just subjective and personal opinions, everything will end up on your own preferences, likes, and dislikes.

its definitely airy, though maybe your preference is leaning towards a more safer tuning (ie. warmer set than a balanced or bright set)
Something like the Wan'er SG 1
I don't know much about IEMs, but I bought [this one](https://www.headphonezone.in/products/headphone-zone-x-tangzu-waner-s-g?variant=51643510554992) on a friends recommendation and it is working great!
Audio is great, I mostly use it for gaming and music, it's mic is a bit weak in picking up sound but that isn't an issue for me. Build quality is good imo and in the last year or so of daily use there is no damage/issues
