Short answer: the ZiiGaat Luna. It ranks #213 of 1291 in-ear headphones by sound quality, rated 4.3/5, at $379; the ThieAudio Hype 4 ranks #272, rated 4.2/5, and costs $399, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
The case for the ZiiGaat Luna: The median of 21 hobbyist measurements gives it a very good Harman preference score of 77 with a 1.68 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 0.5 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. The catch: Presence sits about 4 dB low with a 5.3 dB dip near 3.9 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
What the ThieAudio Hype 4 does well: The median of 31 hobbyist measurements gives it a very good Harman preference score of 76 with a 1.52 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 1.3 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. Watch for: Presence sits about 3.2 dB low with a 3.9 dB dip near 6.5 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
Buy the ZiiGaat Luna. It is rated higher for sound quality than the ThieAudio Hype 4 and costs less, 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.
