Because TRS sockets are readily available. TS sockets are less so. Easier to select a more common socket and not connect one pin than it is to find a suitably matching, and possibly lower-quality, less available one.

So, tip signal, sleeve ground, ring ignored?

I haven't checked yet, but that's what I'm guessing. Or, tip signal, sleeve and ring return.

Some photos I took today (using Halide on an iPhone 12 Pro Max!). Comparing the iDSD Sig with the Mojo has been tricky, with each being very enjoyable to listen with. A weird thing that happened with the IEMatch, in that the "High" setting dropped some of the bass when using it with the 2020 Andromedas, but "Off" and "Ultra" were fine, even if the former gave mostly no volume adjustment.

Much appreciated Amos, great shots!

Yup. Tip is signal and sleeve is ground.

Its what is plugged in. Powers it no problem with the right dip switches. XBass is also perfect to get some sub bass out of them.

One of the best features is how portable the thing is. A USB cable to my HTPC and I'm set to use headphones.v

It's a REALFORCE 87U. A classic if you're into keyboards at all.
