08' E63. Should I get x-pipe 2nd cats delete w/ my current resonator Delete?

Just the title.

Have had my resonator delete with straight pipes for about a year now.
The sound is amazing of course, but I'm just wondering if I could make it a little louder and more mean sounding and yet keeping that refined AMG sound.

I know I don't need to make it loud to "show off" my car, but it's just personal preference.

Would removing the secondary cats and replacing it with a x-pipe make it sound nice still?

Or if I should remove the mufflers?

Any opinions?

I have the 55, different I know but the cats stifle sound and performance under decent throttle. Must be much the same for 63? Removing either one set or all improved sound under acceleration. Idle is much the same. I would fear removing the mufflers as they seem to maintain the quality of the noise produced from these amgs. I have midlength headers into x pipe resonator then stock cls55 muffler.
