Default Bassani dnt vs jackpot/comp baffles

I am still on the fence about buying the bassani dnt mufflers but cannot decide! Currently running the jackpot's with competition baffles and they do sound great, but the sound clips on the Web of the bassani's has me itching to get them. Anybody here went from jackpot's to the dnt mufflers have any advice please?

If you've ever heard the CFR's, they sound exactly alike. Thus DNT, Deep 'n' Throaty. I love mine.

With the sound being so deep and thunder sounding like people say, does it take away from the classic harley rumble though, if that makes sense?

If you notice, the Rineharts sound is a much higher pitch "crackle" while the DNT's, are a very low rumble. This gives them an edge, in mho, because you can hear your radio, your ears don't feel like they're going to bleed and the cagers not only hear you, but they feel the rumble. Because of today's well insulated cars and high powered radio's, feeling the rumble seems more important. At least to me. This is also why so many emergency vehicles are employing rumbler type sirens now days.

Good info, main reason why I have never even considered rinehart. While I do like relatively loud exhaust, I much prefer a loud/deep rumbling tone as opposed to a loud crackle/raspy sound. Gonna decide tonight and hopefully end up ordering them tomorrow through our friends at fuel moto, on sale for $492 right now
