It is the difference between the left en right channel in decibels. For CD it is about 100db and actually irrelevant, since any CD players can achieve about 96db.
Recordplayers and tape-desck could only get about 25-60db channel seperation.Marantz AV8802, Marantz UD8002, Rotel RB-991 and RB985mkii, Rotel RD960

Do you mean that if the level reaches more than 96db, you can hear the difference between L and R?
thanks.Comment

It's a measuremnent of crosstalk. Theoretically, the left and right channels of a stereo component (or the 5.1 or 7.1 channels in home theater gear) are totally independent of one another. In reality, due to proximity of components within the box, power supply limits, impedance, etc. there will be a small amount of bleed over from one channel to ther other.
For digital devices (CD/DVD players), amplifiers, and processors the channel separation is normally very high (96+ dB). This means there is, for all practical purposes, virtually no crosstalk. For analog signal sources (FM tuners, turntables, tape decks) there tends to be lesser separation, which leads to a reduction in stereo imaging.
Basically what that means, is if you play something that only plays in the left channel, and you have the volume cranked up to the point where the left channel is playing over 96 dB (and this is LOUD), the right channel will be playing the left channel information at 1 dB (inaudible). In other words, you won't have any discernable crosstalk with that amount of separation.Do you mean that if the level reaches more than 96db, you can hear the difference between L and R?Comment

Hi all,
Maybe this is not the place to discuss this, but I have quite a problem on my hands. A couple of months ago I got me the RDV1040 at an excellent price. My aim was to go for the RCD1072, but I had budget constraints. Times have changed and I am in business for the RCD1072. However,... -
Hello,
I have this entry level audio setup consist of the ff:

Now got the chance to get either RCD1072 or COMBI X-DACv3/X-PSU v3 that I can connect to my existing RCD02. Which you think... -
Found some info on the new cd player.
Its from a german site called http://www.gute-anlage.de (translates into www.good-system.de), which is a site from the german distributor I think. They have the RCD1072 listed at 899 euro with the following text:

Hi. I mostly listen to music but occasionally watch movies. Since I place more value to listening to music should I get separate CD and DVD players? I have read that some people notice a considerable difference when playing a CD on the RDV and the RCD. If the difference is big then I would be inclined... -
Hi
I have the option of buying a new RCD1070 for about 30% less than a RCD1072. Is there much of a difference between them ? Any problems with the earlier model i should be aware of ? The saleman says ther is little if any audible difference between the two models. Any thoughts would be appreciated....
