Suppressors tavor suppressor 30. harvester or specwar 556

I have the 556 and 762 saker. I don't notice any sound difference between the 2. Is the harvester rated for high rates of fire?
I've only ran my socom 7.62rc and my 5.56 mini on my Tavor, the 7.62 is ok but the mini is far from hearing safe. I have ran my BB harvester, my 7.62rc, my oss, and my omega on my 308 AR and the bb harvester with the larger openings was the quietest by FAR! As someone else said the added volume more than makes up for the larger hole.
I know on the original Saker 7.62, shooting with the 5.56 endcap vs. the 7.62. The 5.56 was quieter, even against the 5.56 model.
Heard this time and again. It's a bigger can so more volume equals better suppression in general, and with that endcap and all the other shit they make fore the Saker, it's hard to go wrong. It's a very well thought out, designed and built can. Stellite is a bit overkill IMO but hell, I guess it'll never wear out in my lifetime. Saker is one of the best cans available and I doubt few here would disagree.
Generally, a 7.62 can has more volume and with the larger opening lends to a deeper, throatier sound. It suppresses as well if not better, depending. I started with 7.62 cans.
5.56 cans generally produce a higher pitch and depending on conditions that can make it sound quieter. They're usually shorter and lighter. IMO, dedicated cans are worth it for several reasons.
I have the 5.56 Saker and it's one of the best military cans out there, solid simple QD and very well made. If weight is a problem, get a TBAC and watch the temperatures (no continuous mag dumps). KAC QDC is another I can recommend now but it's an expensive setup when you can get the Saker for less and it may even be quieter than the KAC, but the KAC QDC has a ton of features no other can has. If you have a KAC upper with the mounts already, this is the can I'd probably just go ahead and get.
Can't speak for the Harvester, but I do know it's a hunting can and I generally don't buy hunting or multi use cans.
I would choose a Saker 556 ASR, it's pretty much an upgraded Specwar 556. If lightweight is your priority, and you don't do too many Rambo magdumps, I have 1 or 2 leftover Thunderbeast 223 Ultra suppressors left at a great price

dang, don't check in for a few days and lots of helpful tips thanks!
obviously, i should just go try them both out,
on a side note, i have a 338 thunderbeast and i put it on my 6.5 creedmore rpr and it's huge but it is really quiet.
i don't ever do large mag dumps
what is the quietest suppressor for a 9mm sbr? no mag dumps, just something as quiet as possible with subsonic ammo ( I assume subsonic ammo is quieter)
