i think the reviewer meant that it can "drive" the re-600/400b - even if the pin configuration being used by the iem is TRRS configuration as compared to a normal TRS.
 
i was checking the manufacturer website - http://en.cayin.cn/product_view.asp?id=792 and it doesn't say anything about balanced output. if it does, they should have indicated output levels for each SE and Balanced

Beautiful, I just got a x3ii. But I can't justify a $600 DAP purchase.

Thanks!
No it's PLA. It's the cheapest material on Printerhubs. It was actually supposed to be prototype to see if all my measurements and allowances for the DX90 and the 4400mAh x-large battery were correct but it fitted so perfectly that I just glued the cardreader to the back and called it a day xD

i believe i have the answer, since both are 3.5mm, L- and R- would contact the same area for ground as with a normal SE plug 
 

so i'm pretty sure it doesn't output balanced
