Default Drone: Is this sound clip typical?

The following link is from Corsa's website. They have a sound clip of interior drone. Is this what people are hearing from the aftermarket mufflers that drone or is this an extreme case of drone? It would make me miserable.

I have the stingers which drones bad. But it's not extreme as the one in the sound clip.

Ditto.

The drone isn't too bad, especially if the windows are open. I just try to keep the RPM's above 1800.

That's not drone, sounds more like the car is resonating with the exhaust pipe.....

plus, the clips are from corsa's website; i would guarentee they would use the worst possible sound/drone as their competition's product vs. their sound, which would be their best and most 'refined' sound
