Dumb question, but resonated sounds much better I assume? I want good sound certainly.

Resonated MP keeps the police away any my neighbors happy.

The resonated MP doesn't drone (at least the Borla XR-1) on the highway, and sounds better.

I heard that with the resonated midpipe, it doesn't sound as loud at lower rpms, but once you get on the gas, both resonated or non resonated will sound the same

There is a big sound difference. I was running a dp, mp, and apex dual n1. Just switched to a resonated mp from srmotorsports, it didn't change the sound at all, just not nearly as loud. I didn't notice any difference in power, and there is much less droaning on the highway. I'm very happy with it.
