Drone

My first Berk high-flow cat front pipe has deteriorated and I'm about to install a second one. I really like this unit except for the drone. Any suggestions on how to avoid or diminish it? Wrap maybe?

Get something with a resonator as well. JDL makes ultra quiet FP with a cat and resonator.
Lachute makes one with a ultra quiet resonator which can definitely help with drone.

Thanks. I've already ordered the Berk, but I suppose I could fabricate a resonator into it. I particularly like the sound of the Berk, which is why I'm replacing my original one.

Anything you do to reduce drone will change the sound
