My guess is that you are sensitive to the way that the SRAM OG (Open Glide) design guides the chain onto the lower cog. Look at the SRAM cassette and you will see that most of the cogs have 1 missing tooth, this is the source of the clunk. I think SRAM would call the shifting precise or quick rather than harsh, but your opinion may differ. The previous advice on tweaking the cable tension should help a bit, but the nature of the OG design will always lead to a more sudden shift versus the Shimano IG/HG cassette design.
