Just out of curiousity, why are you wanting Bose?

Every time I've bought a Bose product in the past they have held up incredibly well and never gave me any problems.

I see, it's just for around the same price, you could get an actual surround sound option.

I’m good with my C9. I love it. I don’t notice it ever during day games in mlb the show only in night games and it doesn’t bother me that much. I still think even with ABL it blows the picture of ANY led tv. I’ve never noticed it with SDR content and I’ve watched a ton of SDR context on this tv. I don’t have my oled backlight too high in the first place. I’ve only noticed it with night games in madden and mlb the show. I’ve never noticed it with COD or any other games. Still an awesome gaming tv in my opinion and I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to see these consoles at their best.

Not only that but Bose is so overrated and like you said for the price you spend on Bose you can get an actual surround system that blow any Bose system away.

In my case it was. The moment I lowered the logo settings the ABL kicked in a lot less. If you read the settings it’s self explanatory. It lowers the brightness to prevent any potential burn in.

This is what is so damn frustrating. Why only these specific games? I had the same problem. Like you said, COD is fine, God of War fine, Red Dead 2 beautiful...Madden 20 HDR enabled even during the day games does it a bit and forget about the night games.


Wish this could be fixed
