Greetings and thank you for accommodating beginners!

Reading threads here regarding Legere reeds, I find that they're supposed to be thicker/harder than similarly labeled other reeds, that one should move down somewhat from what one is used to. I tried a Legere Studio Cut 2.5 after playing Fibracell 2's and the Legere doesn't last...at first it lasted an hour, now only half that. The Legere requires more air pressure and seems softer, not thicker, and it locks up like old worn-out reeds. I'm using an Otto Link STM 7*.
Am I fooling myself?
Regards,
RG
