I'm wondering the exact same thing. This is the thing I arrived at today is that the short tails eliminate the most "sound restrictive" piece of exhaust and I currently have Berk HFC's as well. And I'm seriously considering the Short tails to get the sound I really want. And I can always have a 2.5 inch diameter pipe or larger to increase flow later in life.

I have the AAM mid-pipe with short tails and don't find them too loud. It seems the sound has tamed a bit over time. I recently ordered FI non-res HFCs to get a bit more gain and sound. We'll see how they sound after I finally install them.

I think going with the short tails will be a good choice for what you are looking for.

I ran just Z1 HFC with the short tails for a while and it sounded great! It was loud, but personally I didn't find it "too loud" at all. Since then I've added the s-line mid-pipe, which increased the volume pretty noticabely.

Just put the tails on my '13 last night and coming from stock they are very loud, but they sound amazing. I've gotta be really careful and train myself not get to high in the RPM's in town.
