What seems to get the most popular/best sounding muffelers at the moment
Everyone in my town has flowmasters on their 5.3's and 4.8's. I have sweet thunders on my Trans Am and initially wanted to use one on my truck. My t/a has long tubes and true 3" duals with an X-pipe. I was going to stick a single 3" sweet thunder in place of the stock muffler for the time being. ive read a few posts and It doesn't seem that this isnt the greatest sounding setup out there.
What are some of the best sounding mufflers out there for a truck with stock manifolds and cats ?

This is the problem I had. I had stock everything, with a custom bent Flowmaster 1 into 2 dual catback. It sounded great IMO.
Then...
I swapped to longtube headers and an ORY...MUCH, MUCH louder...and that shitty sounding rasp. I wound up with a Hooker Aerochamber installed inline in the "I" pipe and now it's perfect for me. I honestly feel that the truck runs much better at all rpm's now, compared to when it had the loudass raspmaster muffler only. In fact, I truly believe that it was slower than stock with headers combined with the ultra loud catback that sounded so good when it was stock. It runs very well now, for what's done to it.
If I had it to do over, I'd have swapped on the headers first.
Here's idle and rev video of current setup:
