Do you have the Dolby switch turned on?
It is frequently labeled:
"Dolby"  "DB"  "DNR"  ( Dolby Noise Reduction )
Dolby noise reduction is a two way process.  As the tape is recorded, 
the high-frequencies are emphasized with a special circuit.
During playback, they are un-emphasized - reducing the high-frequency 
hiss of the tape.
There is not a straight one-to-one coorelation, you cannot simply 
cut the treble of your amp to correct for this.
If you are playing a tape that has been recorded with Dolby noise 
reduction, you will need to turn this switch on otherwise, you will 
get the high frequencys you talk about.
Good luck!
