Cat / muffler recomendations please

I have a 92 305 Camaro and the previous owner put on a single in/out muffler. I want it to be dual out and want something that gives it the deep throuty clean noise but not so loud I can't listen to music. Also my cat seems to vibrate a lot (when pulling up to building get that crapy vibrate noise back at you)(from the metal protective shroud I assume). What are some good replacement cats that improve power but also don't make any excess rattling noise? Figure I'll do it all in one fell swope (cat and muffler)..

Thanks

I have the Hooker Cat-back from www.jegs.com that i got for $199. it screams when i push it but cant hear much of it while crusing.. but its very nice. i love the muscle car sound it gives. and i noticed alot more low-end torque. i had a glasspack that dumped out before the rear axle before. the hooker Cat-back comes with a 3" I-pipe and a Single 3" inlet and duel 2 1/2" outlet Hooker Aero Chamber Muffler. and very nice Quad tips.

I've got SLP's "two-on-the-left" cat-back that they used on the '91-'92 Firehawk. Also have Random Tech 2-1/2" cats. I love the setup. Very deep rumble, I get lots of compliments. But it's not so loud in the cabin that you can't hear your passenger talk.
