I have a suspicion that it is not really that 16 ohm compression drivers are more common in sales overall, and only appears to be from where you're looking. Maybe there have been more availble from the tent sale or something. I know that my designs use 8 ohm drivers, so from my perspective, they're more common. I get a lot more requests for 8 ohm drivers than for 16 ohm drivers. But I don't know what is most common worldwide, or if there is any reason that one market or another might prefer 16 ohm devices over 8.
