- jchw 8y agoTIL. Looks like there is at least a bit more variance on the 1/4" jack, with multiple types that are in use. Meanwhile, virtually any consumer 3.5mm jack is going to be TRS or TRRS, though admittedly there are definitely some less-standard things there too. So the 1/4" jack has been around a lot longer, but may be less 'standard' in that sense. Of course, I also have no idea whether 3.5mm jacks have always been as 'standard' as they are today.
