Thanks for the answer Rune.

What kind of signal are these? Here is some extra information:

All my signals are a 40kHz.
X, Y, X2 and Y2 have values that can go from -inf to +inf.
X1 and Y1 have values that can go from -1 to +1 and each couple of
values x1,y1 have this property:
sqrt(x1*x1+y1*y1) = 1.

What do you try to achieve? I want to completelly separate the signal
to find the two original sources.

Why? Because I need the two original sources. :-D

Is there a real problem that the signals are not completely separated?
Actually yes, today the separated signals are not usable, that's why
I'm looking for a better filtering process... a process that takes into
account the knowledge I have about one of the resulting source's signal.
