Because of the XLR and 2 single-ended outputs, I've been able to perform a/b comparisons of cables and XLR/RCA connector preferences.
I've chosen the XLR because the additional 2 volts provides more gain and a much more dynamic presentation overall.
Ghostrider45 is correct about the inverted phase of which pin is hot in the XLR connectors. But only on the older version of the SCD-1.
The later versions (there's an uppercase 'R' on the SCD-1's front face plate just under the lower right corner of the display window to signify the later version.
On the later versions of the SCD-1, the XLR pins are 1=ground, 2=hot, 3=cold.
This I believe is the standard in the US and therefore should no longer invert phase.
-IMO
