Anyone with PSS10 suspension find it to be overly stiff?

Anyone here have PSS10 suspension? I was under the impression they were supposed to be on the softer side, but I find them to be really stiff. Car bounces over pavement a lot, and I don't even have the damping set too stiff. Somewhere between 3-4 all around. Is my experience normal? Or is it maybe too low which may be exaggerating the stiffness?

?? PSS10 are 1 way adjustable only..

OP, I had my PSS10 set at 3 all around and found them to be slightly bouncy, or too much motions after dips / bumps. Adjusted up to 6 and it firmed it up but the ride felt better, less oscillations if that makes sense.. maybe try that?

Thanks! Never though to increase the dampening. I will try it!
