Which exhaust is quieter?

I'm choosing between V&H 2-1 Pro Pipes and Reinhart 2-1. They are going on a 2012 Fatboy Lo.

Haven't had a chance and won't have time to hear them myself, so I thought I'd ask here.

Does anyone have experience with both? I'm wondering which was less loud everything else being equal.

Thanks for your help.

I have the Pro on my Slim with the standard baffle and it is not loud at all, I have the quiet baffle also but have not installed it, I can't imagine it being any quieter.

I think they are both pretty quiet on a stock bike. I prefer the V&H as a product to Reinharts but would choose a D&D over either.

Never heard the RH 2-1 but they are usually a deeper sound pipe VS V&h's

If U want to keep the noise down, then look at the supper trapp 2-1... good pipe all around.

I put "Full Bore" with 2" baffles on my 2010 Heritage Classic. They have a very deep sound and in my opinion are louder than the V&H Big Radius that I have on my Dyna WG. J&P carries the Full Boar mufflers. The quality is very good.
