Convention for naming for audio adaptors and leads

* phone connectors (of whatever size) should be specified at least as
"stereo" vs "mono", although there is growing use of 4-pole versions
(for stereo headphones + microphone, or stereo audio + video, etc.)
and 3-pole does not necessarily imply "stereo" either, as it is commonly
used for audio + power (as for mono computer "mic input"s)
Which is why you should use the term TS or TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) rather
than stereo or mono. A mono balanced line also uses a TRS plug for example.
