Short answer: the Artpical Blue Planet. Both are rated 3.5/5 for sound quality (#839 and #797 of 1291 in-ear headphones), and the Artpical Blue Planet costs $570 against $599 for the Tin HiFi P2 Ultra, with sound quality a draw, the lower price decides it.
The case for the Artpical Blue Planet: A 12mm planar IEM with treble right on the Harman target and full sub-bass to 20 Hz, scoring 67 across four measurements. The catch: A 2.45 dB spread from the target shows peaks and dips that better tuned sets avoid.
Why pick the Tin HiFi P2 Ultra: A 12mm planar IEM in a gold plated shell with bass right on the Harman target, scoring 68 across five measurements. Watch for: Treble sits about 4.7 dB below target, a dark, relaxed balance.

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.
