Short answer: a tie on sound quality. Both are rated 4.1/5 (#359 and #335 of 1291 in-ear headphones) at nearly the same price ($500 vs $499), so choose on features and fit.
The case for the ARTPICAL Lucifer: A broadly balanced tuning with a preference score of 75 against the Harman target. The tradeoff: The rating reflects sound quality only; comfort, build and noise isolation are not part of the score.
What the Xenns Mangird Top Pro does well: The median of 17 hobbyist measurements gives it a very good Harman preference score of 75 with a 1.65 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 1.3 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. The tradeoff: Presence sits about 4.4 dB low with a 6.4 dB dip near 5.6 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
Buy the ARTPICAL Lucifer or the Xenns Mangird Top Pro on features: they are rated the same for sound quality at close to the same price.

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.
