Default Which muffler sounds better?

Just a muffler alone, not adding any header or S-pipe, I want it sounds lower, not just beep beep or high tone, and I don't like too loud. HKS? Strup? TRD? G-Reddy? Magaflow? etc?

They will all be pretty low as long as the scuba tank/resonator is in place. I believe the magnaflow is the loudest of the bunch I think. There is a few vids on youtube.

Ive got an HKS muffler. Its the ES wagon exhaust. Its a nice mellow tone and isnt raspy or too loud at any RPM, but it is definitely a more tuned sound... heres a clip from youtube, not my car btw

I also have a TRD cold air intake so its a little deeper but this should give you an idea
