The max cap is -99, and here is why. Apart from Agatio saying it is, you can test it yourself by getting sets of gear which give u -95/-99 chan. There is a clear difference, especially in skills that originally took a long time to channel (like 3 seconds). 

Note, however, that channeling time is not the same thing as cast time. Some players remember 'insta cast' from old servers, and wrongly conclude that, since it's different here, the cap is -95. It's not. On those servers channeling time was the same thing as casting time. This means that if you are -99chan, you're truly instant and you will not see animations. At some point the developers realized that this was broken and made channeling time and casting time different things.
On this server you can be -99 channeling time which means your channeling is instant. However, you can't reduce the cast time, and thus you will always see animations and need a certain amount of time to execute skills.

Most people don't know the difference between casting time and channeling time, and this is probably what gives birth to the discussions about max ct.

Not sure why ET said it was -95%, maybe he got his info from wrong source and didn't test on his own.
The cap is -99%, but if it exceeds that value it resets to -90%  
This reduction applies only to channeling time (casting time is always fixed).

Casting isn't affected by channeling stats at all
