Short answer: the Kinera Imperial Loki Emerald. Both are rated 3.8/5 for sound quality (#554 and #550 of 1291 in-ear headphones), and the Kinera Imperial Loki Emerald costs $3,099 against $3,499 for the Canpur CP622B, and with sound quality even, the cheaper one is the better buy.
The case for the Canpur CP622B: The median of 13 hobbyist measurements gives it a solid Harman preference score of 72 with a 1.92 dB spread. Watch for: Presence sits about 5.2 dB low with a 7.5 dB dip near 6.3 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
Why pick the Kinera Imperial Loki Emerald: A broadly balanced tuning with a preference score of 72 against the Harman target. Watch for: Treble about 3 dB below target from 3 to 10 kHz, which can sound dull or veiled next to brighter headphones.
Buy the Kinera Imperial Loki Emerald. Both are rated the same for sound quality, and it costs $400 less than the Canpur CP622B.

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.
