Sound is totally subjective.
By and large, pypes have been crap. They rust out easily, and have until recently been made of aluminized steel.
I don't often bash products, but Pypes are cheap for good reason.
x-h-or straight, it won't make that much different.
the mid pipe affects the undertones, not the sound directly. The "sound" comes from the muffler & tip more than anything upstream.
h-pipes generally produce a deeper undertone, because the higher frequencies cancel each other out.
X-pipes generally produce a higher pitched undertone, because the higher frequencies flow through.
Straight pipes don't cancel much of anything.
