Lightbulb Muffler sound Help

I just bought a 99 coupe DX and am looking for a muffler that has a really low bassy tone. I don't want anything that's gunna get high pitch when I'm at high RPMS.

I heard a nice magnaFlow at the last meet and was inspired but didn't get much info out of the guy(my fault). I know pipe length, resonator and muffler itself play a part in it all but I'm not sure of the exact workings. Any help would be appreciated!

If someone could build a text based version of the perfect system for me so I kinda have an idea what to get I would LOVE THAT!

Thanks in advance!

i got a cherry bomb from crappy tire (just because it was cheaper than an OEM muffler)..and it sounds completely stock. Ive heard flowmasters on civics, they sound deep. thats the direction im heading.

i have an Apex'i World Sport 2. It's quiet. Slightly louder than stock. My friend has a magnaflow with dual tip (two 3" right next to each other) on his 98 hatch cx with 2 1/4" mandrel bent piping from the cat back. It sounds too loud and somtimes a bit farty for my liking.

I have a magnaflow with 2" piping and a res, and it sounds stock. In fact, you can hear my intake over my muffler. If I punch the gas, you can hear the muffler...but it is a deep sound, and not too loud.
