Balanced Connections on the AA Capitole MKII CDP

Has anybody compared the single ended vs balanced outputs on this player? How are the balanced outs implemented on this player? Thanks for your help.

Opposite the American balanced standard where pin #1 is wired as hot. Seems to my ears both balanced and RCA output are the same volume output levels.
