Default AWE Twin 1 vs ASP TrueDual

i was looking into both of these exhausts and noticed they are similar in ways, but different as well.

some background: i am running a custom exhaust with only one muffler. this muffler is located right behind the tips, thus the exhaust sounds VERY deep and to be honest drones. i dont mind the dronning at all, and really love the "deep'nest" of my custom exhaust. however, im looking to upgrade to either ASP DPs (with test pipes) or AWE DPs (with test pipes), thus considering matching the TrueDual exhaust or the Twin1 respectively to the DPs.

my question is, which one of these exhausts will be "deeper" sounding and in tone? i want it to be loud as well, but "deeper" sounding is the more important quality. by the looks of the exhausts, it seems the ASP TrueDual is built exactly like my custom one. thus its my guess of sounding more familiar to my current setup (with stock DPs though).

can anyone confirm if one of those exhausts is deeper in sound than the other? its my guess, the Twin1 might be louder but maybe not as deeper, since the muffler is placed in the middle, but again i have no concrete info to back that up.

TIA

Default i would imagine that AWE would be louder considering it has one resonator and the ASP has resonator

and a muffler. Listening to both exhaust videos (from their websites), i would personally go with ASP. AWE just seems too loud for my taste.
