Default What Axle Backs do you use with your Long Tube Headers?

I had a MAC Axle Back on my stock Manifolds and Catted H and it Sounded Awesome, Low Rumble just what I was looking for. But when I added my JBA Long Tube Headers and Catted H-Pipe, the MACs were just way too loud. the got a bit raspy, so I al looking for mufflers again, I want a deep sound no rasp and loud but not obnoxious. My Neighbors are getting Pissed with my driving to work at 6am.

So what mufflers do you guys have on your Logn tube headers?
do you like them? and so on...

I had that same setup (JBA long tubes and catted H) with Magnaflows and it sounded fine.

You're going to have to do like me and get 4-5 different setups until you find what you like. lol!

Gone are the days of just adding an off-road pipe and flowmasters unfortunately. I've got some MAC and JBA axle backs for sale, btw....

This is the Setup I have now, JBA LT, Catted H-Pipe and Stock Axle Back, It's abit louder than the stock setup.
I have noticed I lost some power compaired to the MACs.
