Default loud samsons need advice

picked up a set of samsons street sweepers, look great but couldnt believe how much louder they are from the screaming eagles! i honestly dont like it! so i ordered 1.5 baffles to quiet it down, after install, they are still as loud!
whats next? just bought some silent sport packing to wrap the baffles, should be in couple of days. do you think it will reduce the sound by much?
any other ideas?
mike
go heat!

Get some ear plugs if its bothering you or cotton ***** haha. I wanted the loudest pipes but when I got my Bub jug Huggers it was way too loud and started giving me headaces so I just folded up paper towels and put them in the ear sockets of my helmet and put cotton ***** in my ears which helped out. Now I got use to the loudness and think its too quiet, its weird

That's called the onset of deafness.
