Unless I'm mistaken, the "lighter" cannons have a wider attack angle than the "heavier" ones.
Cannons have firing arc of 90 degrees
Dual cannons have firing arc of 45 degrees.
Not sure where "Heavy" factors into this as opposed to a possible quality thing, where one item is just superior to another (assuming there are heavy cannons and heavy dual cannons) I honestly haven't paide that much attention to the names of the items.
Dual Heavy Cannons have a slower refire rate than Dual Cannons. 3 seconds versus 2 seconds, respectively. Dual heavies hit harder, but you need 3 of them if you want to be firing constantly. You only need 2 dual cannons to be able to fire constantly, opening up a weapons slot for something else.

It all boils to preference, really.
Nice to know.
