Resonator vs resonator-less catless downpipes

While still in my quest to find DP's that aren't stupidly overpriced, I've noticed that they can come with or without resonators, based on the brand. Has anyone gone from one to the other and comment on their sound differences? I wanna be able to hear the turbos, but I've prefer to not hear droning if possible. I can't imagine a resonator would impede airflow, so hopefully someone can comment.

When I had the Meisterschaft GTS with the supersprint cat less front pipes and x-pipe, it sounded amazing. You could clearly hear the turbos spooling up and down all the time and it was very distinct.

After installing cat less dp, i got rid of the GTS since it was way too loud! Right now I have cat less dp, supersprint cat less front pipes, x-pipe and the stock bmw performance exhaust. You can still clearly hear the turbos.
