What is the difference between H pipes and X pipes and the other pipes?

H-pipes have a balance (crossover) tube running between the two sides to the exhaust making it look like an "H".

Instead of having a balance tube an X-pipe uses a piece that looks like an "X" where both sides of the exhaust converge into an open space and then split back out.

And while it has been subject of numberous threads, my vote is still with the x pipe..
