If the air entering the ducts is 55 - 60 and while in the ducts in the attic it increases 10-15 degrees, then the problem obviously exists in the attic area.
Given that I doubt that anyone installed a heater inside the ductwork (lol....although that would make for a good hidden camera show) and conditioned air doesn't change 10-15 degrees that quickly up or down without a great deal of help I'd be looking at the attic temps. Ducting run in attics has always created a problem due to sometimes very hot attics with poor ventilation.
What is the temp. of your attic ?
At what temp. are your vents turning on ? (check the fans thermostat)
Is there a good flow of air coming out of all the vents serviced from the attic ?
