I recently installed X51 headers and "pre-owned" AWE 200 cel cats to compliment my previously installed "pre-owned" Remus mufflers ('06 C2S) . I think it sounds pretty good. I can see where you could get the "raspy" sound from the stock cans. I was actually thinking of going back to my stock cans. But after reading your post, I think I'll stick with the Remus mufflers for now  The tone is totally non-offensive when cruising part throttle at the RPMs you mentioned.
Good luck with your search. I would recommend going full tilt with headers and aftermarket cans.
