It's normal to hear a little under the conditions you speak of. I'd be curious if the amount of cross talk was different when you have an input on the channel you're listening to and put it on pause while listening for crosstalk from the other channel. Having something plugged into the input you're listening to 'terminates' that input. If the input is left floating, it has a high impedance and is therefor more suceptable to EMI (electro-magnetic interference).

2) Is there potential for channel imbalance when the volume pot is turned all the way down?
|
Much less on the pots we now use (the Clarostat pots we used to use were significantly worse), but there's almost always a bit of imbalance at the low end.

3) Should I be concerned that I hear loud buzz when I merely touch the volume pot?
|
Do you have anything plugged in while you do this? Again, it is important to have inputs connects to terminate them. I wouldn't be surprised at all to hear the if you have no input and have the gains turned up that you'd hear hum touching, or even getting close to the unit.

4) Do the different gain settings, compared at identical volumes, change the sound quality/character?
|
We've had people comment that the 'high' position sounds a bit different than the 'low' and 'med' position. I really don't hear too much difference though.
