What It Is / How It Works

This 8K HDMI eARC audio extractor converter takes the HDMI 2.1 signal from a game console, streaming device or Blu-ray player, sends the video on to a TV or projector, and splits the audio out to a soundbar, amplifier or headphones. Audio extractor converters like this let one source drive a display and a separate sound system at the same time, so you can keep a single HDMI cable to the screen.

Who It's For / Use Cases

Audio extractors like this suit people whose TV or projector has limited audio outputs and who want sound sent to a separate soundbar, amplifier or headphones. Gamers who play on a monitor or TV while listening through a headset or sound system, and home theater owners connecting a projector to a surround receiver, are typical buyers.

How to Use / Care

1. Connect the source to the TV for video and to the soundbar for audio.
2. For a soundbar with only an optical input, use the fiber optic (Toslink) output.

How to Choose

Match the outputs to your equipment. A soundbar or receiver with only an optical input needs a digital optical connection, and wired headphones with a plug need an analog connection. If your TV sends high-bitrate audio to a soundbar, look for eARC support. Compare the video resolution your source sends with the HDMI resolution listed in Product Specifications before you choose.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it work with a PS5 for 4K 120Hz gaming?
It supports 4K at 144Hz, so a PS5 can run 4K 120Hz with full HDR and VRR support.

Can it send audio to a soundbar that only has an optical input?
It has a fiber optic (Toslink) output that works with any soundbar or receiver that accepts optical audio.

Does it pass Dolby Atmos from streaming apps on my TV?
It can pass Dolby Atmos through to your soundbar or receiver when your TV supports eARC and Dolby Atmos.

What is the difference between the eARC and non-eARC model?
The eARC model supports the enhanced audio return channel, which carries higher bandwidth audio such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio back from your TV. The non-eARC model does not support these high-bitrate formats.

Can I connect headphones while also using my speakers?
The 3.5mm analog output lets you plug in headphones while the other outputs keep sending audio to your soundbar or amplifier.
