Why do chambered mufflers have to drone so much? These things sound fucking fantastic. When I had them on the car before I had mid-mounted Magnaflows and they apparently killed a lot of the sound. The Magnaflows are gone and these things sound badass. But god damn, around 2000 RPM the resonance inside is not pleasant.
Replaced the broken TB connector on the wife's Shelby with a new Motorcraft pigtail, and now getting ready to take it on a cruise with the wife

I always found chambered mufflers to drone the least.
That's weird, it's usually straight-thru mufflers that are more prone to droning than chambered mufflers. Are you also running O/R or catted mid-pipe? Also, consider mid-mounting your chambered mufflers with either high-flow cats or O/R
Yeah, same here.
So which mufflers are you running now, what brand? if the drone is unbearable? consider mid-mounting them just as you did with your Magnaflows, but don't run a mid-mounted setup together with axle back mufflers, as this will definitely make the exhaust note too quietI have a catted H pipe. So far on this car the chambered mufflers have seemed to drone the most, the straight through FRPP (Borla) Touring mufflers I have have droned the least. As I said in a previous post, when I originally had these mufflers on the car, I had Magnaflows mid-mounted, but I felt like it made them too quiet and the resonance was still there. I dunno, I'll have to drive with them a bit longer and see if they break in a little and get any better.

Unfortunately, I'm not really familiar with the Edelbrock mufflers nor their SDT 3 chamber design for that matter. You would think however if they're designed to deflect sound, they shouldn't drone especially when used with the factory catted H pipe still in place or even with an aftermarket catted H? At any rate, I'd consider giving the folks over at Edelbrock tech support a phone call and let them know about the drone issues you've been having. Perhaps they can assist in troubleshooting and possibly come up with a solution? I'd at least recommend giving that a shot, as they might even be defectiveCurrent AB is Edelbrock SDT (Sound Deflection Technology, I don't know if they even make them anymore), basically a 3-chamber flowmaster so there's no way they could be mid-mounted. It's not unbearable, just annoying.
Get Varex Xforce mufflers. Sounds good, no drone what so ever and can go from quiet to loud at push of a button!
I have them with long tubes and catless h-pipe with a supercharger.
Get no trumpeting or drone. Only time I keep it closed is when I to cold starts in my garage.

I just want to hear a better clip other then the piss poor YouTube videos I found of them. Headers O/R H magna flow with side pipes equals loud and nasty drone. Something mid mounted like this may work! Price though.
