Bleed Over

[dflee]

First off I'll admit "I am a dumbass" when it comes to a number of topics.
That's why I have an immeasurable amount of respect for those of you who know this stuff.
Can a digital cord coax RCA connection or BNC if not insulated properly right and left channel effect each other? I'm trying out a new coax and have never heard what I can only explain as like an incredible separation between channels. Noticed it a little through the speakers but through headphones the separation was almost dizzying.

That is not how digital works.  There are not separate left and right digital signal/channel paths.  More than likely you are listening to a very quiet (low noise floor) coax cable.
