Power Dual sound

I've been told V&H Power Duals have a "different" sound than standard 2-1-2 headers, can anyone elaborate on this? I'm thinking about the Power Duals with Hi-Output slip-ons (when available) and would like some input as to how they sound, perform, ect.. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

From what I can see the Hi - Output slips ons are available now. I'm considering the same setup for a project I'm working on.

I can hear each exhaust pulse or each cylinder firing,it does make the sound a bit louder too.

Sounds good to me, not to loud but a nice rumble. Are you satisfied with the setup?

They are loud as. I have ridden the bike without ear plugs once. It was crazy, my ears were ringing for ages. you dont get a feel for how loud they are from the vid. They wount be as loud behind a 96", this 124" is running 11:1 compression.

If you want a rumble then put MOs behind the PDs. The Basics give you a really loud barking note.
