I just installed the Fuel Moto 2-1-2 stainless head pipe and then put the OE mufflers back on, added a nice little tone to it but not loud. Waiting for a warm day to take a road trip but around the block I like what it did for my 2016 Streetglide Special.
droning from pipes or droning in a helmet?- some riders who wear helmets esp full face, the cavity of the helmet is itself a resonator....even flipping open the visor will completely change the effect- as it changes the size/volume of the resonant cavity.
If so, then that indicates the the helmet is subject to sympathetically resonate with sounds, whether from motor, exhaust, a truck or wind.

Even the stock exhaust on my 2017 will drone with a full face...gotta wear earplugs.
So I assume I can start checking eBay for "Road Glide CVO Slip-On 2014-2016" and I should be good? I will also setup a search queue for the "Street Cannons".
Keep the recommendations coming - thanks!
"Litterbox" has 3 pair avail for sale, do a search.
Cyclenby, we have a few different muffler styles that fit the type of sound you are looking for. They will give you a much deeper tone, and a nice bump in volume over the stock slip-ons without becoming obnoxious.
Our most popular models for Touring bikes have been the Knockouts and Top-Guns. You can find some more info about them on the links below. Both are offered in your choice of chrome or black finish. If there are any questions we can answer, please feel free to drop us a PM any time!

A little late to the party but I wanted to weigh in. I have an 07 Road King with no cat in the stock header. I run Big Louie's and wear a full face. I love the bark of the Louie's on accel and don't know what the "drone" is about which you are talking. They quiet down nicely (even better once I packed the baffles). I'm looking to go true dual headers soon, which should add volume and depth to the sound. Still want more rumble. If that's not enough I'll likely try RCX or VH monster ovals. Since I wear full face it's hard to have them be too loud.
