Exclamation Is there such a thing as the best of both worlds

Well as im sure you all remember a while back i posted what mods i was going to do to the exhaust system this year and after many phone calls with QTP reps for the butterfly exhaust valves and getting quotes together its looking like the system is going to cost me well over 2k, now am i beeing a total nutter in that i want the car to be silent like standard and then flick a switch and its loud ... its getting to the point where on a long run i miss the quiet because the drone form the system as its non resonating can be too much sometimes and i find myself driving over 2k rpm all the time in order to keep it quiet

Question .. Do i bother with the valves or shall i just quieten the Quads down and have a resonator fitted ?
or do i go all the way and have the expensive valves fitted ?

also what is the main difference between resonated and non resonated ? is there a major difference ? i love the sound but its hard to live with on a long jurney when i want to relax, or picking people up from the airport ect, motorways are fine because the revs are above 2k but these welsh roads are twisty and its a constant drone

please advise me before i go spending money and end up not happy

thanks Guy's
