Default OPINION: Exhaust Choice?

Hey all. Right now I have a custom exhaust made full 2.5" piping dual exhaust on my 94 civic. One pipe is muffler and one is straight pipe essentially. It sounds okay but gets very "glassy" like almost buzzing or vibrating. Im looking to replace the mufflers, but keep the dual set up. I want a deeper, loud, resonant tone that doesn't get vibraty and sound shitty at higher RPMs. What are your thoughts on muffler choices? I have liked what I have heard of Greddy, HKS. Where should I look? Any insight is appreciated. I have attached some pics of my current setup just for kicks. Let me know what you think.

first get rid of the dual exhaust. sorry i really don't like dual exhaust. my set up on my car sounds pretty good. i have b16 eg hatch with 2.5 all the way back. i have a hytech replica header, 2 resonators made by vibrant and a universal muffler made by vibrant as well. the exhaust sounds really good. its not to loud just driving around normally but wants you it WOT it opens up and sounds really nice. got a nice deep tone to it.

my vote is for magnaflow straight through. I loved that muffler on my tercel. The key is to put it as close to the engine as possible. The further down the exhaust stream the fartier the sound.
