we are having some strange issues with product image quality being very inconsistent. How do we fix this? Our cached product images looks very dull compared to the original ones.
WE tried to view the image from the original location and it looked good. But when Magento converted to a cached image, it got very dull.

The most likely reason for an image becoming dull, or tonally inaccurate is that an embedded ICC colour profile has been dropped, added or otherwise not respected.
To check if your "before" and "after" images have ICC colour profiles, use
exiftool– available on Windows and all good OSes:It could be due to compression. Either from an image compression module or server compression from generating the cached image.
