Caveat: I have a 103", not 96". I have the Monster Rounds along with other intake/exhaust/tuner mods (see sig). I have been very pleased with the sound of the MR's. Much better/deeper than stock, but not too loud. They are a LOT quieter than the VnH Long Shots I had on my WG - especially at speed - which made the SO happy too.
You get still get a decent growl outta them which you twist the wrist, but are quite deep n mellow around town. Another way I'd compare their sound is the difference between an older carbureted 351 Cleveland and a modern FI 350 Chev - less hot rod / more sports car.

Only had the bike since yesterday, so i haven't rode to far yet.
First impression : Exhaust sounds real nice and deep in town. At high speed, the radio was useless but that might be normal for the radio anyways.
Once at 50-60 MPH, the exhaust was very noticeable and might turn out to be a pain on long trips.
Was looking at the youtube video posted...it does seem to have the same tone, but louder as somebody said. Maybe more then just a little....

MRs vs. Rinehart 4"
dschock: I have MRs and my friend has the Rineharts. IMHO, both are very good looking pipes on a touring bike.
My friend's Rineharts (to my ear) are a fair amt louder than mine. We both have 103" - his is a SG that also has cams and head work done, so that certainly may have something to do with it - but I don't think that's the sole reason his are louder. I like the sound of mine - he likes his. To each his own, eh?

Hi Guys,
I have the V&H Monster Rounds and PowerDuels with Stage 1 Screamng eagle air cleaner with a 103 engine and it sounds great. It sounds so good at idle and highway that im putting them on the Wifes new 2012 Streetglide.
Good Luck with what ever you get.
