Why are cans like the Sennheiser Momentum considered by some to be easier to drive than say, 439s or 558s, when they have the same 112dB 1Vrms spec as the on-ears?

My conventional thinking would be that higher impedance speakers would be easier to drive with the same voltage sensitivity since there's less current draw... what am I missing?
