cause, solution, ideas please...

OK I am born again into the world of vinyl, my humble set-up is as follows:
Onkyo 1027F table
Audio Technica AT-92ED Cartridge
PS Audio 4.5 Pre-amp (with upgraded Cardas Silver Rodium output jacks)
on Navcom Suspension pucks, my table is 5 feet away from my Innersound Eros speaker on a heavy well built stand. I will say that I am not using any special interconnects.
Although I will never expect this to sound like a Walker, or even a Rega table...., but I get the sound of what can best be described as AM radio "like" high frequeny clarity especially in the cymballs and "S's"
Even at my table rigs price and age I dont think that this should be expected performance, if it is then screw vinyl, but please help me figure out what are my options, what may be the cause, and cheap solutions, at what amounts to a roughly $900 set-up (new) I cant imagine this is what should be tolerated.
P.S. my records are well kept and treated with Realistic anti-static cleaner with a velvet brush.

>>will adding mass to the table while playing (I have 2 marble triangle nick-nack peices) that I can put on while playing, will this have any sonic benefit?<<

Why ask if you are the only one with your particular setup conditions? None of us can duplicate this experiment? So, just do the experiment, then YOU tell US what you hear. It'll take less time than it took me to post this.

Note: I realize this sounds harsh, but eventually you have to trust your own judgment. I'm just trying to kick your ass into active experimentation.
