Question Opinion on Mufflers for X

I have searched for X-Pipe pics and came up with very little, but there is a great pic of a WS6's setup that I think I like. I know that this is an ongoing question, but if I do go with the Dr. Gas Universal X setup, then what mufflers do I want? No rasp, Good crusing sound, not a redneck pickup, just a nice sounding, deep tone, maybe a little hollow? Hell I don't know just looking for opinions, maybe some sound clips? Right now all I have is Pacesetter LT's, a large gap, then my existing B&B Tri-Flo, which is going bye bye real soon!! BTW I would like turndowns as well BEFORE the axel.

Thanks in advance all!

Search "True Duals" or "Mufflers" with my Username in External Engine, I;ve got a lot of information on the subject. I've narrowed my pick down to either Borla Pro XS mufflers or Magnaflow 4x9x14" mufflers. Everything else seems to drone at some rpm or is just too loud. Both mufflers are relatively cheap, especially that Magnaflows that I've almost decided on are my final choice. I heard an LT1 last week with Hooker Aerochamber mufflers and it was Extremely loud inside and out! I'd recomend hearing any true dual setup first in person before you decide because none of the clips you hear on here do it justice.

The 1 chamber Flows sound great.

My setup uses FlowTech Afterburners. A little on the loud side.
