The problem isn't the Loud Mouth alone, or even the ORY alone, it's the combination of the two without some kind of muffler/bullet/etc to reduce the kazooing.
Having a Y-pipe is the real source of the issue here. True dual cars don't have this problem. You could have LT headers and true duals using only race bullets/resonators and even without a traditional muffler it would still sound great.

LM1 sounds great....if you still have cats, or if you put some bullet mufflers in the Y-pipe.

Of course, this is all just opinion.

I have a set of eBay stainless lts a tsp ory and a tsp rumbler cat back Sounded good when I first cranked it up with my new cam. Took it down the street and when I shifted to second and mashed the go pedal all I could say was holy sh.. That's rasp. Bad. This will not be on the car much longer. Way too loud. The tsp ory was around 130. The rumbler was 239 I reused the stock tips. If loud is what u want. That should do it. Lol. The rumbler wasent bad at all when I had cats but after I took them off....... Dayuummmm...

im running a huge cam, fueled racing long tube headers, no cats, to a magnaflow y out to a single hushpower muffler.
it sounds great until you hit about 2400 rpm and you get the brrraaawap rasp sound. Reminds me of a honda civic with *****.. lol. I hate it. I love the rest of the tone and loudness, just not that rasp at those rpm.

Just listen to this, sounds very loud and raspy, I've heard this setup in person too and it was just ungodly noisy. Really no tone whatsoever, just a lot of noise.

+1 -- that's loud and raspy -- sounds like what you're going for. That setup will do the trick.
If you ever think you might have some interest in getting the best of both worlds with a y-pipe setup, run a more mild catback and slap an electric cutout in the intermediate pipe. Crack the cutout open 30-40% and it will add volume to the mix but you still get the benefit of the tone of the catback. Even better -- if you need it to be obnoxiously loud and raspy, just open the cutout and it will sound loud, loud and louder. No tone whatsoever, just really loud.
We all have our personal preferences -- I like to hear the tone in the exhaust note.

I'm actually dealing with the same issue right now. Just had my stepped longtubes and tsp ory installed to compliment the borla catback on the car currently. Exhaust is loud as all hell and the rsp between 1800-2300 rpms is pretty bad. I have one borla muffler on the car and I'm curious what the do to cut down on the rasp. I looked into the powerstick mufflers but there isn't that much room between the y-pipe and catback, maybe 12-16 inches at most. Any ideas?
