Short answer: the QoA Adonis. It ranks #796 of 1291 in-ear headphones by sound quality, rated 3.5/5, at $181; the ZiiGaat Lush ranks #868, rated 3.4/5, at $179. With prices this close, go by the sound-quality ranking rather than the cost.
Why pick the QoA Adonis: A hybrid with a 9.2mm dynamic driver and two balanced armatures. The catch: A 2.44 dB spread from the target shows peaks and dips that better tuned sets avoid.
Why pick the ZiiGaat Lush: Its warm, smooth tuning across 32 measurements is easy on the ears and never sibilant, and the mids stay close to target. The tradeoff: Nearly everything above 1 kHz is subdued: presence sits about 6.7 dB low with a 7.9 dB dip near 4.3 kHz and treble about 5 dB low, so the sound is dark and lacks detail.
Buy the QoA Adonis. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $2 you would save on the ZiiGaat Lush does not close the gap.

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.
