I think the best way is to go to the busiest Harley dealer you can find near you on a Sunday and listen to the bikes in the parking lot. Sound is so subjective, it's hard to recommend to anyone. A lot also depends on how far you are planning to ride and if you intend to wear earplugs, or if you a short-hopper and want sound more than anything else. Loud pipes will really grind on you during a trip.
Factory pipes have plugs in them, some guys drill them out. Vance and Hines have nicer welds and chrome than OEM, they put out a nice product. I have the V&H Twin Slash on my '17 RGS shown in the photo, slip-ons that you can find for $ 450 for the pair. To my ear, they lower the octave pitch about 25%, but can be borderline too loud after three hours in the seat. Others will say they are too quiet...
If you really want low& loud tone, you're going to have to pull the cats and that means new headers. Lots of choices out there....

yeah iv done a lot of looking around on here couldnt really find anything definitive, so i had to resort to the youtube and from what i can hear through the computer it sounds like the rineharts actually have the most noticeable tone difference more of an aggressive sound to them but i really wouldnt know until i slap them on
