I know the knobs on the front, but I have to ask if there usually are more on the back. The reason I ask is my picture on my new cab is freaking great, but it's still a bit too bright... the whites are a little too much... almost bleeding the picture a hair. If I adjust the contrast, it just gets dingy looking... so I know there must be an intensity knob of some sort on the back that I need to turn down? It's a small complaint, and the pic usually looks amazing, but when I die in KOF 98, the white's a little too white...

Do not play with the RGB gain/bias pots on the CRT base pcb, you will never return.

You may however back the screen volts off a little, thats the adjustment below the focus pot on the lfbt.

in lamens terms, that black block on the chasis with the big red wire sticking out of it;) . the voltage pot will usually be glued for factory settings. don't be afraid to break the seal

But if you do, grab a little of your girlfriend's nail polish and put a dab on it when finished. If you don't then the heating/cooling cycles of running the monitor & turning it off will cause the control to ever so slightly turn.
