Default good lt1 mufflers??

hey ya'll. so i got my 95 z28 some pacesetter longtube headers and then had it straight piped. i knew it would be loud but not quite that loud.. ha. so the question is now with headers 2.5 in dual pipes straight back to mufflers (no cats) what sounds the best? what i love about the straight pipes is you can hear it lope so well and its so clear and precise, i'd like that same sound only quieter. i dont mind noise at idle just not past that. i eventually aim to put a cam in her so i want to be able to hear that. whatcha think?

I have a 3" Texas Speed Rumbler catback (bullet style muffler), with quad tips and I love it. Its deep with no crazy rasp.
