Big Radius seem to be the majority opinion.....but, (dont shoot me!), I dont like the curved look. Do they make an equivalent in a straight or staggered dual?
V&H Big Shots Staggard! (this is what I have).

I was thinking of getting the "quiet" baffles. I've heard that they reduce the volume by only 1 - 2 dB but deepen the tone. Is this about right, or is the volume decrease more than that?
