Magnaflow Dual VS single?

Well its christmas time and my ranger needs a new exhaust... ive settled on magnaflow due to reviews and their general good quality... money isnt a big deal for me its more about the sound....

I dont car about the look... personally i like the Dual exit but thats just IMO

My question is, What are peoples opinions of their Dual VS single exit exhaust, Im talking about the SOUND... Interior droaning? overall sound? loudness? So long as im not going to end up with a headache while driving i would love to go with the dual, but as my co worker has a tacoma with a dual exit flowmaster that makes my eyes bleed, sounds great from outside but kills your brain from inside im a little on the fence for dual.

anyone had both?

Thanks
Tim

BTW i tried searching but either i didnt use the right keywords or i just couldnt find a very detailed description of either, and youtube was of no use

I have the magnaflow dual exit system and when your not on the gas hard you cant even hear it really from in the cab. Even with the hammer down its still not drony much at all.

I have the Magnaflow duals, sounds alright. If I was to do my exhaust again Id do a cherry bomb single baffle or a 40 series with a si/so slash tip. I think single out let sounds better and duals are for looks IMO.

I hated my Magnaflow SI/DO at high speeds for long periods of time. Gave me a horrible headache. So I eventually took it off and went with a stainless SI/SO and loved it. Sounded perfect, and I could rarely hear it inside of the cab.

I didnt realize that there was so much difference in SI and DO.

well my opinion wont matter i have duals with no muffler. i have 45* out behind the rear tires with 24''x3'' Black polished SS tips. As for drone it's pretty low as mufflers tend to drone. Fully warmed idle sounds like it has a muffler. WOT its very loud and cruising is loud.
