Lack of bass though is more commonly pickup cartridge, stylus, tracking weight, etc. 8 Ohms vs 16 Ohms won't make that much difference, (coupling capacitor on output). It does mean more risk of abuse to output stage at high volume. It's not like a 3" speaker vs 5" speaker.
You can try 4.7 Ohm, 6.8 Ohm, 8.2 Ohm and all that may change is maximum volume. (I'd use 4 resistors roughly x4 larger, in parallel or 4 in series at 1/4 value if you only have tiny resistors, in any case 1W rating might be fine). I doubt it affects bass much.
