MiSTercade V2

I get what you guys are saying but that is the same monitor, it's an ms8 so no contrast pot. If I lower the brightness it gets dim, not good. The two pics are just swapping the mistercades with zero adjustment. If the video levels are the same it should be good I would assume. The v1 is a v1.1 @misteraddons. I shouldn't have to adjust the gains, most pcbs and the v1 are fine with the current pot settings, nothing else looks bloomed like the v2. Pardon my ignorance @ImportantBet but what does the ABL do?
 
Okay, my apologies @misteraddons , @ImportantBet. I didn't mean to come on strong in my last post. I just tried it on my HAS using a consumer crt and yeah it looks great. I Just don't understand how there could be that drastic of a difference between the two mistercades without changing anything. I haven't had it look that crazy between any of my pcbs, maybe a minor brightness and the usual h/v pos.
 
I’ll get better pictures for you to see how similar it is Monday. Luckily I have a blast city and Astro city coming in next week. I will test to see if the video has the same issues.
Also I will test on my neo 29 candy

I also have the same issue the colors look smeared and bleed when outputting through the jamma edge however when connected to the vga header the picture is perfect

I have a blast city with a tri sync chsssis. I have no problems with my irken jamma expander through jamma edge fwiw

I'm kind of glad someone else has the issue, but not so glad at the same time. I've tested it over VGA and it looks great. I'm getting the feeling the HAS was doing something to clean it up with the jamma edge. I've tested it on my Windy with an ms9 and it looks better but the v1 is noticeably sharper. I need to get out to the garage and test with the k7000's but I can't for a couple days.

Id look at altering the focus on your flyback aswell to see if that has a positive outcome. Ive noticed in my aeros/astros they all need slighlty different tunning with different feeds, CPS2, mister, CPS3 all needed slight movement.

100% tried that and a bunch of stuff before posting here. I just recapped and reflowed this ms8. While the image isn't perfect it looks really good with very minimal adjustments on everything else I've hooked up.
