Audiophile earphones under 5k

[kvikram]

I've come down to the following choices.

Soundmagic E80
Audio Technica ATH-CKX9

Other alternatives like the Ostry KC06A and the Hifiman RE-00 don't seem to be easily available in India.

I'm almost finalized on the Soundmagic E80. However I would prefer the AT pair because of the earhook design which I really like. Unfortunately, they seem to be sold out on all online stores.

Would appreciate some suggestions!

Thanks. But I already got the Soundmagic E80. It ended up being a VERY good choice. Amazing sound in a small package.
