Default resonator or bullet muffler?

ok i think im finally starting to grow up or turn into my father.
my car needs to be quiter but it sounds so nice. im not totally sure i want to put something in the I pipe but i cant hear myself think anymore. my current set-up is ARH's with Catted Y-pipe to GMMG with the CME tips.

i was wondering what would be better to just quiet it down and not change the exhuast sound/definition? i would be placed in the I pipe.

SS resonator or some kind of bullet muffler?

thanks,

if you had the room closer to the tailpipe it would get rid of more sound.
