Do you get any sort of rasp when the engine is cold?

I noticed the exact same thing, onthe highway it sounds like the car is coasting, which is nice for long road trips...
If the car sounds like its coasting (foot off the gas decelerating) while cruising, you have what we like to call drone. Resonators fix this. Should be silent with the right sized res. (or damn close to it). Mines loud under load but once it reaches speed its quiet (even with headers and race series mufflers).
I highly doubt you dont have drone with no res. If you dont think so then you probably dont realize what it is. 
I meant coasting in the sense that you can't hear the exhaust and all you hear is tire noise, not exhaust noise. Regardless of what one might call it, it doesn't bother me the slightest and I do some serious (500kms+ round trip) commuting for work on a daily basis.

Believe it or not it doesn't sound bad at all, my SVT had Sho-Shop y-pipe with no main cat and resonater and there was a slight rasp when cold (lasted for like 2min) other then that car sounded nice and I had the stock mufflers on the car also.
