There is a bit of drone around 2000-2500 RPM, but it's tolerable. If I had gone with 12" resonators, I'd be concerned about the drone becoming overbearing. Maybe someone with 12" resonators can chime in on that.
I'm more than happy with my 12" resonators, I have HFC also so I think that makes it a little more louder. But cruising at 65 MPH I notice more the sound of the tires than the exhaust. At low RPMs it's a beast and that's the first reason I got an aftermarket exhaust, so I'm a happy camper...
