No, the different ohms had no effect. As far as the amp driving these was concerned, there was no load at all. The impedance was so high there was just no load on the amp.
I have NO idea how the manufacturer computed that impedance, but it is meaningless.
These are hooked up parallel, with a resistor in series with each tweeter.
There are three "groups" of CTS/Motorola piezo drivers:
The KSN1165a, KSN1142a, and one more, a 2x6 horn that I don't remember the number, all have the built in "Powerline" protection circuit mentioned earlier. These had a low end rolloff of 1800 hz.
Also in this "Powerline" series was the KSN1188a, which replaced the older KSN1086 (which lacked the Powerline protection circuit). This is a very large driver that goes down to 800 hz. It is very smooth, with some minor dips and humps that are far less than many well thought of drivers. For making a 2-way with a large woofer, 12" or 15", this is ideal.
In the second group are the various other 1800 hz drivers, KSN1025a (2" x 6" horn), and others, had an internal 22 ohm resistor, but no other protection.
The third group is comprised of various drivers with a low end rolloff of 4000 hz. This group includes the KSN1005a (which are what you have) and the similar KSN1001a (same but rear mount), KSN1016 (2" x 5" horn), KSN1038, KSN1041 all had the same 4000 hz driver. These had no internal components, just the driver mechanism.
BTW, while the 1005 was, and still is very common, the 1001 is pretty rare. So much easier to front mount.
Piezo drivers act like a very small lossy capacitor. In the audio range they have an impedance of about 1000 ohms. Up around 40 khz they drop as low as 4 ohms. And as frequency goes even higher, the impedance continues to drop. This extremely low impedance can cause some amplifiers to oscillate. Or if the amp picks up RF, it can cook the tweeter... I have seen this myself. It is really fun at a gig to see smoke coming out of the PA tweeters.
To prevent this, the 1800 hz drivers and the Powerline series have an internal resistor in series with the driver. This resistor is for protection of the amplifier, not the tweeter.
The various 4000 hz drivers can use a series resistor to protect the amp, just as you see on your tweeter arrays. Each tweeter has its own resistor. CTS recommended 20 ohms to 50 ohms. I have done listening tests, shorting around the series resistor, and you just cannot tell, either in level or tone quality. It makes absolutely no difference in the audio range. Putting 50 ohms in series with 1000 ohms is insignificant.
Again, this resistor is not for protection of the tweeter, and will not pad the tweeter at all, regardless of what you read in some catalogs. Whoever wrote those catalogs did not read, or completely misunderstood CTS's own paper on the subject.
If you want to use a 1005 or other 4khz driver with crossover and L-pad, put the resistor between the 8 ohm parallel resistor and the piezo tweeter.
