Inconsistency between CO 4.6 and CS4

I'm new to CO, so please bare with me.

I output beautiful-looking TIFFS from RAW in CO. Once opened in CS4, I notice some shift in colour balance and a small, but significant loss of detail. Printing from CS4 gives rather muddy prints - closer to the proof in CS4 than that in CO.

Any suggestions what I should be doing?

  I also am new to C1, and have noticed exactly the same problem.
  
  Is the problem inherent or something wrong in the processing I am doing. I have even tried converting to 16bit TIFF, and still images lack a lot of detail once they open in CS4.

  The same here (tiff16, tiff8 and jpeg) , C1 v 4.6 and PS3
  Significant loss of detail and "mood" colors (very small dessaturation) = when open developed file @ PS3... Viewing at C1 all is OK.
  
  Colorspace = sRGB @ C1 and PS (i try aRGB and i have same problem)

  I always had same problem with old versions from Capture One (v3.7 and v4.0)

  Best you check View->Proof Profile and make sure that profile used matches the Output Recipe selected, in this case sRGB.

  I am using C1 light and there is no Proof Profile in the View drop down.
  Any other way to check ?
