Dynomax super turbos. beautiful mellow sound.
I have Dynomax 17747's on my '69 Daytona (2 1/4" pipes) and they are real nice. Quiet and not offensive under normal conditions, nice tone when you want it. I'd buy them again in a minute.

318" summit headers into summit glasspacks, into 2 1/2" summit turbo mufflers at the end.
Car has a great carb, valvetrain sound, not to mention a scream when you mat it. Flows well enough for street cars applications. This is not uncommon and cars came from the factory with a similar design.
I had to, for noise restrictions from landlord, and neighboor complaints. No drone at idle or cruise. Exhaust note retains performance character.

I just picked up some Borla ProXS for my Duster.  Both my Brother and my Dad have the Dynomax Super Turbo. My Brothers 383 has some drone at highway speed, they are not too loud at all. I wanted to try out the Borlas instead of copying them directly... You can see straight thru the Borlas. They dont look very restrive at all. If you are interested I can post a video of my 440 with the Borla mufflers in a couple of weeks.

I have a 71 Satellite Sebring, a built 340 w/ shorty headers and 2.5" dual exhaust. I'm currently running a fairly new set of Magnaflow mufflers which were pricey, and which sound great but they're too loud for my taste. I want something quiet where I can hear myself think and not have much background noise if I'm on a bluetooth phone call.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Jim
which magnaflows? the larger the case, the quieter the muffler. if you've got a standard "super turbo" sized 14x4x9" case, switching to say a 12286 (5x8x24" case) or a 12586 (5x11x22" case) will net you 2-2.4 times the muffler volume.
the dynomax 17748 & 49 are large body (10x5x20) that will be among your quietest, but also best performing choices. I run a single 17769 (3" in/out/internal version of this muffler) with a 3" ID glasspack in the tail as a resonator behind a 360, it performs great, and my car is about as loud as a friend's with generic 2.5" 14x9x4 turbo mufflers.
if you have room, another cheaper alternative might be to keep your current mufflers and add a set of glasspacks in the tailpipes as resonators.

I had a speed shop in Pasadena do the exhaust, and the owner said that he installed the biggest muffler he could fit on on the car. Then we put on resonators at the end to muffle it some more.
My tolerance for the noise might be a little less than the average moparts member because this is my daily driver car (it's the newest car I own!) and I regularly drive my 3 year old around in it. It's nice to be able to hear him when he's trying to say something, and I don't want his hearing to be impaired at all because of my stupid exhaust.
I don't want to give up performance, but if I have to trade, I'll take quiet over performance.
Thanks.
Jim

Hi Jim,
Dyno Max, Magnaflow, Flow Master, Anything with
the name Turbo muffler in it will be somewhat loud.
You want a quiet muffler, you might need a stock
one. Headers add to the noise also. I've tried
them all over the years and quiet is not one of
them.
Stock manifolds will help and a stock style
muffler will make it able to talk on the cell.
Snap your neck, mega G-force launch, is all I want!

I got the "Hemi" Super Turbos with the 20" case. 
They tuck up completely under my 66 Coronet with no ugly hang down hacked look.
