TT set up in the Bay Area

Just got my new TT and the people that I bought TT from didn't set it up correctly, so I'm looking for someone in the bay area that's good on the TT set up. I completely reset up the TT but would like someone to check out what I did. The TT is sounding pretty good but have a bit of sssssssss sound. Can anyone advise with my problem. My TT is a VPI HW-19 JR with Audio Quest PT-9 arm, Sumiko Blue Point Special cart and Creek OBH-8SE phono pre. I will be returning the Creek and getting something else. Has anyone ever tried the Audio Experience Concerto tube Phono pre?
If any newbie is buying TT from Audio Advisor beware that they suck in setting up TT! but they did give me a good deal on the equipment. What IC between phono pre and preamp?

Your cartridge is the main SSSSSS reason.
For nearly the same price you should look for Dynavector 10x4 or Goldring Eroica.
Do learn to set up TT yourself since none except you can listen to it the right way.
