The art pre ain't the best but you should get a decent sound from that combination. What eq are you using post recording?

no help lol
 
Obi is suggesting that you sort out the acoustics of the room , that is good advice .
High end mics and pres are not gonna help if the room sounds like arse .

If you cannot perform the piece as required , then turn off the audio equipment and bloody practice your art until you are proficient .
 
And before you go and build some kind of a makeshift booth, I'll just say that closets tend to sound like...closets. Just because it looks a bit like a pro vocal booth, doesn't mean it works like one :)
