Apple IIe and Taxan Pictures

Since my last post won't let me, here are the pictures. Notice how dark the violet is, how vibrant the green is and how red the orange is. The small adapter came with the card and is allowing me to use a CGA cable to connect to a DIN cable. Lastly, the color bar test is showing brown as greenish brown. Sorry for the vertical blank on the pictures. They also look grainer in the pictures than in person.

I remember the Apple IIe violet being a little more pinkish and the orange was not as red.

Apple IIe 64k Video 7 RGB to SCART

I have this card in my IIe and it has a cable that plugs into it with a DB15 that puts out CGA., I have a DB15 to 9 Pin DIN (Round) plugged into a 1983 Taxan RGB-I. It works fine, however, I find the colors to be a little off. Especially compared to a IIgs RGB. The Apple IIe hires "orange" is more red and the violet is more of a dark purple. The blue is dark. It's really close, but not exact.

The Taxan is set to IBM/Apple III for the Round DIN (CGA), but it also has a SCART plug for the Apple II. If I use the SCART cable, will the colors be more accurate?

Long story short, I need to find this cable: Apple IIe DB15 RGB to SCART. Do you know anyone that sell these?
