Default Spoon N1 axle back vs. Comptech axle back

This is for people who have heard or have owned one or the other (or even better owned both). Which has a deeper tone to it? Also which is louder? I know I know, this isn't about performance but how the exhaust sounds does affect my buying decision as they are priced about the same. Thanks in advance.

I've heard a Comptech and I own the N1. The N1 is very loud, I can hear my car from two blocks away easily when it's at full throttle. It's also very deep. I do like the Comptech sound, but I'm loyal to my N1 .

Is your exhaust just an axle back? or do you have other things done to it? (i.e intake, headers, cat, b-pipe)

I had the Comtech axle-back at one time and really liked the way it sounded. It wasn't obscenly loud and people commented on its nice sound all the time...
