Default Exhaust sound level 2018 F-Type S

Had my New JAG delivered 1 month ago and i'm disappointed of the sound level that the 2018 F-Type S Model makes.
My former 2004 basic F equipped with an Active exhaust had a more fun making sound level.
It sounds like the 2018 S has a towel stuck in the damper compared to my previous one.
Anyone has the same experience or knows if there is a difference between the exhaust dampers of the 2014 and 2017 models ?

My former f-type was a 2014 make with 340hp and exhaust button.
The new 2018 mod a 380 S with active exhaust but without the exhaust button.
Meanwhile I tested the 2018 mod on the highway,, exhaust opens at 4000 rpm, however no pops or cracks on deceleration compared to my previous standard F.
Is this due to the deletion of the exhaust button or 2018 software related?
