I had the V&H Power Duals installed on my 10 Ultra Classic Limited with stock mufflers. Very small increase in DBs. I had a download done upon install. This spring I will have a dyno tune done.

Don't get me wrong though, they both sound great. I only use this bike for long trips and the constant drone gets old after a while.

ear plugs are cheaper !

My ears must be worse than I thought, cause I don't hear any drone at all. Matter of fact I'm installing a tach cause I can't shift by ear anymore. I used to have V&H Bigshots on my Fatboy, so the Monster Rounds are Library Quiet for me.

Here's a few pics for looks. . .

I'm leaning to the V&H Monster Rounds also and thanks for the pictures and video. That helped.

Another style of monster is the Monster Ovals twin slashed ends. This came out this year.

Stock pipes sound good with the Power Duals. Much cooler..

Seeing a lot of 2011 Ultra Road Glides in Merlot around here. I just picked up one last Saturday, only got a 100 miles on her. Just need a little warmer weather to get out.
Had V&H power duals put on, left my stock mufflers on until I can decide on a quiet pair of slip ons. Probably going to wait till spring when I can get around more and hear some other bikes. Never heard the bike without the power duals so not sure how much it increased the dbs. Its a good sound but still want something a little deeper sounding. NOT louder but just that deep growl..
