That's exactly what I noticed as well.

Gary, I am sure glad you didn't run over your camera...'cause you would have never lived it down on here...and by the way, it might just be time for shocks, when you got into the car, it went down quite a bit....just saying....

Doc, I'd hate to think what you would say about my XF when I get in it.

Nah the shocks are fine but maybe a few less burgers and about 30 pounds less body weight would do the trick.
And remember my NA is softer than your SRT6

Overall its much louder now, at idle you cant really tell, then step on it and it has a pretty overwhelming sound, the youtube vids barely even portray it. It's a little much for me so I'm trying to decide if I want to keep it. If I could sell it to someone on here who just wants to buy the ready to go modded muffler with stock tips I would. Otherwise I may add a resonator. Anyone interested?
DO U HAVE ANY VIDEOS??

The Ansa only comes with the tips, but you could modify that as someone has already put the stock tips on one.

But not hearing it myself modifying the tips may change the sound.
It think it was mentioned here in a earlier post.

Is there a way to get a similar sound and keep the OEM tips?

I believe the only person to not like the sound of the Ansa was the guy who changed the tips to OEM

I have the Magnaflow 16633 Catback and like the pronounced sound and the way the oval tips fill up the space. Actually, I think that the OEM muffler is very good and I have always loved the original tips, but just wanted more sound. At the risk of upsetting the Ansa lovers, I think that the tips are kind of small and don't fill the space. In all fairness, some think that the Magnaflow tips are too large? If you don't want some noise, why bother changing? From what I've heard, the Borla is also pretty quiet? None of them will give you any real performance increase.
