MP3 players with balanced micro-jack output (2.5 mm)

micro-Jack (2.5mm)

— the micro-Jack connector belongs to the category of TRS connections (Tip, Ring, Sleeve). The 2.5mm plug is the smallest diameter TRS plug. Micro-Jack connection (2.5 mm) is typical for mobile devices and compact portable audio equipment. The connector is backwards compatible with mini-Jack (3.5 mm) and Jack (6.35 mm), but appropriate adapters must be used for this. Of course, when using adapters, note that the presence of an additional connection reduces the overall quality of the audio signal. To prevent degradation in quality, some MP3 players are equipped with a micro-Jack output in parallel with the mini-Jack or Jack.
