I was looking at web sites one day and the site claimed for, 1st reflection points, 703 was better then 705. I was under the impression it was a horse a piece. So out of curiousity is this true or untrue. Thanks for the help.

In theory 703 could be a little better because it's a "softer" material and so better absorbs sound arriving at an angle. But in practice it might not matter much. The graph below was done using a panel made from 705, and you can see it does a great job.
