I'm in the process of setting up a headphone monitoring system. Wanting to use the balanced out puts, 1-2 & 3-4, for headphone monitoring. I'm using Cakwalk Sonar X3 daw.

So my question is, are each balanced out stereo or mono? I ask because Sonar is grouping 1(L)&2(R) on one channel and 3(L)&4(R) on 2 channel. (and I have my "mains" going to my near-field monitors.)

I plugged my headphone amp in to #1 channel, and sent some tracks to the corresponding output, using the sends, pre-fader. I was able to manipulate the the mix levels, but the pan didn't seem to do anything. Sound was coming out of both speakers in my cans.

I did look in the owners manual and couldn't find any tech info on the balanced outs.
 
Those are all mono outputs, so you can have only two different stereo pairs as Sonar points out. Also probably the pan wasn't working because you were using a prefader send. I don't know for sonar but in reaper the order is Fader -> pan > master so if you use a prefader send the panning knob is not gonna work.
