Oppo's response:
"Balanced headphone outputs allow for four times the amplification. This is why we you can get much more power out of a balanced output than a single ended output."
Translation: it's not a mistake, we meant it to be that way.
Probably because power, P=V2/R and a balanced connection is twice the unbalanced voltage, or Pb=(2*Vu)2/R = Pb=4*(Vu)2/R, or 4X the power. Assuming there is no current limiting.
