eARC Audio Extractor 192kHz

High-fidelity HDMI audio extractor designed specifically for compatibility with UK and EU television standards. Dimensions: ~10.5 × 7 × 2.5 cm; weight: ~180 g. Enclosure uses reinforced plastic and metal components for durability and electromagnetic noise suppression. Input: eARC/ARC HDMI. Outputs: HDMI (audio-only, HDMI 1.4, 720p), optical (TOSLINK), dual RCA (L/R), and 3.5mm headphone jack. Supports PCM, AC3, DTS, DD+, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio. Max resolution: 24-bit/192kHz. Powered by DC 5V / 300mA (included USB cable, 5.5 mm DC input). Input audio format confirmed by status LEDs. Functions as both an eARC enabler and audio distributor: connects legacy AV gear to modern TVs while simultaneously feeding audio to multiple endpoints. Ideal for flats with limited space — replaces bulky AV receivers in simple stereo setups or adds headphone capability to shared living areas. Fully compatible with ARC-only TVs, so users can start with basic functionality and upgrade later. HDMI output transmits audio only, ensuring clean separation from video signals — crucial for noise-sensitive hi-fi installations. CEC volume control works consistently with UK TV models known for strict CEC implementation (e.g., Sony X90K, Philips 7000 series), avoiding the ‘volume not responding’ issues reported with cheaper alternatives. Includes clear English manual tailored to UK electrical safety and HDMI version expectations.
