Short answer: the Acoustune HS1300SS. It ranks #309 of 1291 in-ear headphones by sound quality, rated 4.2/5, at $199; the IKKO OH10S ranks #337, rated 4.1/5, at $199. Close enough in price that the sound-quality gap is the deciding factor.
The case for the Acoustune HS1300SS: A broadly balanced tuning with a preference score of 76 against the Harman target. Watch for: An uneven response, 2.0 dB standard deviation from target.
Why pick the IKKO OH10S: The median of 4 hobbyist measurements gives it a very good Harman preference score of 75 with a 1.71 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 0.7 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. The catch: A 5.7 dB peak near 8.2 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp.
Buy the Acoustune HS1300SS. It is rated higher for sound quality than the IKKO OH10S at the same price, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.

Frequency Response Compared
Both headphones’ measurements overlaid on the Harman target. Above the target sounds louder in that range, below it quieter. Each curve is the median of several independent measurements, shifted so its 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB, so only the tuning is compared.
