HiVi M5N or M4N

I'm trying to decide which speaker to get. I'm building the main front speakers and rear speakers for my surround sound system.

Fronts 3 way
Each cabinet will have
2 HiVi M8N
2 HivI M5N or M4N
1 K1 tweet

Rear 2 way ( I will have 4 of these for the 7.1 surround)
1 HiVi M5N or M4N
1 K1 tweet

I'm leaning toward the M4N
Pros: less expensive about $10 per speaker, lower F3, better range near 1KHz, smaller sealed encloser which will reduce volume needed for both front and rear enclosures.
Cons: power handling, 4dB dip in freq response between 100 and 500Hz but that might not be a big deal but the M5N is nearly flat

swan calls the 4" a full freq speaker and the 5" a bass midrange not sure if that has too much significance.
