16 ohm Drivers vs. 8 ohm

Hey everyone... I put some K-604t horns and some K-66-E drivers in my Forte II cabinets in the mid position. These originally were in a "Professional Series" KP-301 II's. So far, I like 'em! They seem less "Shouty", especially at higher volumes ( 90db+) Question? Do I like them because they are better drivers, or being 16 ohm is their output less, making them seem less shouty?

The stock mids in the forte II are 16 ohm as well even though they typically measure out at around 12 ohm. The k-66e is a larger driver at 2" instead of the 1.5" with a larger exit at a full 1" versus the 5/8's or so of the k-61.
