JIC Ti or SS?

Is the JIC full Titanium and the Stainless version still going to have the same low tone. I dont want to pay the high price of the Ti version if the stainless sounds the same.

I've heard a few titanium exhausts, they sound tinny to me. Not much diffrence over steel to me but just a bit of a buzzing noise I don't like. Just my opinion...
