I'm not sure you can get them in the States but I've got a Xforce muffler on a custom made 3" exhaust with a single resonator. Nice rumble at idle, not overly loud. BUT hit WOT and it screams

There is a bunch that are no too loud. Your best bet is to watch a bunch of youtube videos of exhausts you are interested in. Some people make some good quality videos and you can make an educated purchase

One of my friends has that and I really like driving his car with it. Keeps so much attention from cops away from you. They don't hear you coming anymore. The stock exhaust looks decent too coming out the back. He has a jdm rear and just keeps the tip clean. I love the sound of that wide open when WOT. Sounds much better than my car with a full tbe in my opinion. It is crazy loud and sounds great. He has problems with it though. Pretty sure it is stuck closed right now

I believe you're referring to the Varex mufflers?

This is a great alternative as well!
