Jacob R,

I agree with Chris. Try moving down a half or full strength of reed.

I once had an instructor who had me playing the M13 Lyre with #5 Vandoren reeds. This created a huge hiss to my sound (if listening in close proximity), and made playing extremely uncomfortable/difficult for me. She reprimanded me for the hiss, but wouldn't let me go to softer reeds.

I left her instruction, went to a lower strength reed, and life was good again!
