Default Which slip ons sound best?

Which ones produce the deepest most mellow sound out there? I know these are your opinions but I would like to hear them. I'm trying to decide on which ones to get. I have been looking at the rineharts duals but they are pricy.

SEII's bark at idle but mellow out at speed.

I like my SEII's, but was also considering the Wild Pigs.

Love my Cycle Shack turnouts CS #MTO129. Loud whenever you want loud, and not too loud at idle. Perfect.

Just installed my Rolling Thunder straight cuts on my X. Deep mellow sound at idle and low rpm, louder as you go up. Sounds just like their name, can still hear my radio. Price is $185 + 20 S&H on e-bay. Also my gas milage went from 45 to 47. I love 'em.

You want deep yet mellow, look no furthur then the Khrome Werks slip on's. Deeper then the SEII's yet no louder at speed. Plus the chrome quality makes the SE's and most other slip ons look like junk. The baffle design alone makes these worth the money.

Ive ran Bassani true duals with Thunderheader slip ons for a long time--Very DEEP But VERY LOUD! (LOVED THEM!) Recently installed a set of Vance & HINES Oval slip ons on the Bassani power curve duals & has lost that deep sound I had with the thunderheaders @ idle but overall sound is good on acel, and calm so to speek @ cruise or idle. Good luck with your pipe choices.

I'm new in this forum, so, HI!

The best place to sample the sounds, of course, is at a bike shop or rally. Look for a bike that sounds good to you, then ask the rider (or look) what he's got. But for a sound sample of Vance & Hines pipes, you can go to the Vance & Hines website, look at the pipes & they provide a sound sample too. I wish they had more technical info too though. But from the sound samples, I was considering the Ovals or the classics. But from this thread, I think I'll look at the Khrome Werks. And I as many of you guys reaffirm, I've heard great stuff about the Cycle Shack pipes. But I'm amazed at how many folks spend hundreds on pipes, then find they don't like them & have to change. That gets costly!

Good luck with the hunt. I'm looking too.
