opinions on which muffler to get for dual exhaust

Well I'm planning doing my dual exhaust on my car here pretty soon and was trying to decide on which muffler to get for the setup. I have a 06 C230 sport sedan with v6. I'm going to put the muffler where the OEM one is and run the piping across where the spare tire is to the other tip. I've narrowed the mufflers down to either a) Magnaflow (since most people on here have used that) or b) Flowmaster 40 series (super or delta) and c) Flowmaster 44 series.

I want a nice deep tone but not too loud... the 44 series might have to be out since its really for offroad use and is loud inside and outside of the vehicle. Opinions would be great.

Did you ever go through with this? If so what did you choose and can you please post pics? I'm looking to do the same thing. Thanks.
