Default slip-ons

so i found a site that lets me hear different brands of pipes, yet idk what bike they are using for the sound clip. well, i found some pipes in my price range and im not sure which one i want to go w/, and if anyone on here has one of these and any input on them id greatly appreciate their input! i found all of the following for under $280. im going for a deep aggressive sound, not so much for the performance. anyone w/ any input on these slip-ons? id greatly appreciate any help. hopefully w/in a couple months i'll be purchasing one.

thanks in advance

*Jardine
*Scorpion
*D&D
*Muzzy

D & D is a higher pitch and very loud and very annoying, Muzzy is a lower tone and not as loud. I went with a Two Bros. deep low rumble, can be very loud at high rpms, but it has the sound of horsepower and not the sound of a cheap slipon.

I want the Micron either blue/black or blue/sliver. I would like to hear what it sounds like though in person first before I buy it. I want something that sounds like an indy car.

I got a Scorpion before, sold it, and got a Two Brothers. Scorpion to me, sounded a bit louder than stock, with a nice idling rumble. But I wanted a deep nice throaty tone. And the Two Brothers did it for me. Everyone has their own personal preference though. Whatever floats your boat.

I got a Jardine can which I want to get ride of and get a Jardine Carbon Fiber lok. The tone is badass and was woken up when I put on my power commander. It was worth everypenny. I was thinking Hindle a while ago, but the Jardine does sound very good at both high rpms and low idle.

thanks for all the input everybody. well, i cancelled my order on the Scorpion and decided to go w/ a Yoshimura. heard one in PERSON today and i loved the sound of it. such a deep tone, and sounded great when winded up! plus it was slightly cheaper than the titanium Scorpion, and the Yoshi is stainless (much better looking). i'll let everyone know how i like it as soon as i put it on.

thanks again!

I have a yosh and love the way it sounds. i went with the carbon fiber finish. it sounds great. one thing i've learned though is that most people that have a bike that sounds the way you want it to have done some mods to the pipe. a friend of mine took the can off the slip on and just had a pipe sticking out the side of his gsxr sounds crazy loud.! another guy bought a piece of exhaust pipe from autozone and stuffed it inside the can and tak welded it to stay. now that one looks normal and sounds awesome.
