Quiet Mufflers?

Who makes a performance muffler that is "relatively" quiet? With the recent addition of V&H True Duals, my RollingThunder pipes are a little to loud. Not looking for "stock" quiet, just a little louder than stock.

I used to have the S&S SPO's on my RK. They were just a tad bit louder than stock with a real nice deep rumble. Downside (for some)-they were very large. You can still see them in my gallery. I have since changed to V&H ovals-love them.

The dealer told me that the SE Performance pipe was a hint above stock and had a good sound. I decided I didn't want them because that would've been to quiet for me.

I have the V&H Oval Slip-Ons as well, and like them a lot. They are not too loud at small throttle inputs, but bark pretty loud when accelerating hard. They seem quieter than some others that I have heard; V&H told me that they are their quietest muffler.

Supertrapp internal disc mufflers are awesome for both performance & sound, they are relatively quiet & top performers.

S&S SPO's work well on a stock motor but are butt-ugly on most bikes(they look like a truck muffler hung off the bike)
