Calling all muffler experts!
Which one has better sound:
(1)$80.00 wide oval megaphone or (2)$175.00 HD OEM Screaming Eagle muffler?
Brand is unknown on the megaphone. My bike is 1994 Tour Glide Ultra Classic. I've been wanting to get better sounding on my bike. Loud but not too loud that I have to push my bike away from my neighbor house before starting it.
I know the information is vague but that basically all the info I got on these mufflers.

My Dyna came with Screamin' Eagle pipes, and there is no way I'd ever go back to them. They were too quiet, didn't perform worth a crap, and I didn't like the tone of them either. My advice is look elsewhere.

Ya, exhaust sound is always in the ear of the beer holder, Cycle Shack slip ons are cheap and produce decent power with some bark. Heard the SE Slashes on stock Fatboy and had some noise to them, heard SE Slashes on a touring bike and on the quiet side so maybe size does matter.

On a 2000 FXDX (not an EVO, I know) I had a Screetching Earache II set with the baffles removed: idling on the choke it sounded like a bomber and with the throttle open it used to set of car alarms...LOUD AS F*CK!!!

Next, ThunderHeader 2-1. But a lot louder.
