Default Pipe suggestions for '08 Fatboy?

I just picked up an '08 Fattie and now of course I want sound. Any ideas. I like the look of the black pipes, however I am open to suggestions. I want that deep rumble but still want it loud enough to annoy my ol lady. Any suggestions. Pics would help also. Thanks in advance

Are you more worried about performance, or just looks and sound?

Black pipes that sound fantastic AND give great to good performance include Bassani Pro Steet pipes(WHat I run),SUpertrapp 2-1, Bassani Road Rage etc. check out my thread:https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softail-models/263608-serious-03-night-train-buildup-makeover.html

The ones I have looked at so far are the Hooker Darksides, Vance and Hines Big Radius, and Samson Sinister Black Street Sweepers. The V&H I am not too crazy about, but I don't know much about the other two. Just to give an idea of teh style I have been looking at. As I said, i am open to suggestions

I am a visual and audio type guy. I like to see and hear what they sound like and look like before I purchase. I guess I am overly cautious when it comes to purchases. I have heard V&H pipes before and they really didn't sound too loud to me. Are Samsons louder? How about the Hookers? I checked Youtube but it is hard to tell because of different cameras.

Is anyone running the Samsons or the Hookers?
