Default Recommendations on exhaust sound amplification

So I do like the Magnaflow axle back (mine is custom) but I'm longing for a little more sound.

Catch is, I DON'T want any tin-can rasp at higher revs which I've heard on a few IS 250 or 350 videos with the Magnaflow mufflers and a resonator delete.

I'm considering Magnaflow resonators (4 x 14" round , 2.5" core) but hearing this GS, the difference is not very noticeable compared to mine with the stock resonators besides of course factoring a little more "bass" produced for the 3.5L.

Any suggestions?

After quite the research and advice from custom muffler shops, found the sound I was looking for.

Ironically, the solution involved ripping off the resonators from a recent e92 M3 - go figure.

Here's the video!

@new2jdm, there's now a tiny bit at low RPMs and when driving at constant speed, but not bothersome.
