Missing colors using Cloud-9 RGB cable

So I'm using a Cloud-9 RGB cable on a 512K Color Computer 3 with a Commodore 1080 monitor and some of the colors are missing.

 

Has anyone else had similar problems?

 

A good example is King's Quest IV on the screen with the stone house belonging to the big hairy dude. That's to the south one screen and over to the east a few more screens.

 

In my case, the darker shade of grey on the stone is not there, the darker red on the logs is missing, the darker green trim around the grass is gone, and the darker shade of blue for the background trees is missing.

 

If I switch to composite, it looks fine.

 

And if I use the original Tandy RGB cable it also looks fine with all colors displayed properly.

None of the cables on Cloud 9 actually say they’ll work on the 1080 closest is 1084s. So I’m guessing they must know the 1080 isn’t perfectly displayed since they don’t list it as being compatible?

 

I use the cable on a Dell monitor and it’s colors are also a bit off but looks a ton better than composite
