The tip of that TRS plug is connected to the red wire (RIGHT
channel).

Has that been done correctly? I thought the tip of the TRS plug is
the LEFT channel.

(I also have a 3.5mm TRS socket which is prewired and the red wire is
also the tip.)

The tip is normally left - as left is conventionally follows mono as
regards wiring convention.

As to colours, in the UK some pro stuff uses red and green as per the
naval convention - ie red (port) left, green (starboard) right. Whereas in
domestic stuff red is usually right. Just to add to the confusion.
