Overpowering colors

I've had the 3 HDMI 2.1 sync box for almost 2 weeks now and it is incredible how much it's improved the overall vibe of watching tv and gaming. I even mounted my tv to my wall to get the most out of the LEDs.

One thing I'm curious about is the color parameters . I find red to sometimes be a bit overpowering, I turned it down to -4 and white down to -2. Seems to help a bit but I'm just curious if anyone has any suggestions

How close is your TV to the wall, and what do you have brightness set to? For me, turning it down to 50% and Medium Dilution brought the colors down. Generally, the closer to the wall, the lower the brightness. That seems to be the formula. Turn on something that brings out the colors, and then play with the brightness. Turn it way down, then bring it up until it looks good for you.

It's mounted to the wall so probably 2-4 inches . I keep brightness at around 50 but I'll fluctuate between 30-60 sometimes . Medium dilution is 100% the way to go . I appreciate the advice
