Default Muffler Help

Hi people
Just had our 130000 service and was told muffler is shot.
Q. What things should i be aware of when replacing?
We have a 5.0 V8 and I want growl while the lady wants no drone,any ideas?
I was wondering about a flowmaster as it gave our coupe an awesome sound but it does drone a bit..
Any help gratefully received.. :king:

I swear by lukey mufflers.They test them so that things like drone/unwanted frequencies are minimised.
