I am having difficulty with hookup on my t-amp with this panel jack (3.5mm).
I asked partsexpress and their answer is:
The #1 terminal (short silver) is Tip (left channel +), the #2 terminal (gold/copper) is Ring (right channel +), and the remaining terminal (long silver) is Sleeve (ground/common), in regard to standard TRS wiring.
Is this correct?, I thought otherwise.
thanks.

Try it with headphones and a DVM on ohms to "click" the phones and identify L and R
I am mounting this on my amplifier case (instead of RCA inputs), being relatively new to electronics not sure what DVM means...
DVM is Digital Multimeter An analoge one will do just as well.
You can't really go wrong. The long terminal is ground. That is the same as the outer part of the RCA sockets. The other two pins are the left and right. If you get those wrong then all that happens is the channels are reversed... in which case swap them over.
