Default Rush or SE slip ons?

Im getting slip ons for my 07 Deluxe, I dont want anything to loud or that would annoy the neighborhood at 6:30am. Dealer is recommending Rush 2" slipons, are they much louder or deeper than the 1.75"? They say the SE's for the Deluxe are not worth it, they sound basically like stock, dont perform as well and cost more than the Rush do. So which would you think would be best in my case? My Sportster had SE2's on it and definitely dont want anything louder than those.

If you go with Rush and are not happy with the volume
you can always change the baffel size.

I also used to have a sportster with SEII ,and now have an 07 softail with rush 2" mufflers I would say the sound level is about the same. But dont bother with the 07 strret legal SE mufflers the sound is only slightlly louder than stock. go for the rush and get it sounding right.

Go the SE's, Rush will be too loud for you if you are used to SE's already.

I never tried the rush pipes but heard they are great. Some say they are pretty loud too. How do they compare to going with pipes instead I wonder?
