eARC 4K 60Hz Audio Extractor, Extract Dolby Atmos Convert Sound bar 18G HDMI 2.0 ARC Support HDCP 2.2 Dolby Digital/DTS Passthrough CEC, HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10 Support for Sonos Bose (HDA-929)

Let me say first that I’m visually impaired. I have a Bose smart sound bar 600 and an Apple TV unit and I wanted to be able to pair my Apple TV with a Bose smart sound bar, but you can’t connect them directly. You have to have an EARC port like what comes with a television, but if you’re not using a television, you need an audio extractor like this their audio extractors that use optical and you can do that and it works great, but they don’t play in Dolby Atmos. This device allows you to be able to pair your Apple TV with your Bose Smart sound bar and get Dolby Atmos signals through to the sound bar it sounds absolutely great. I recommend this product to anyone who would like to do that great product.

Tried several other extractors to tie together my TCL TV with EARC, Sony Surround headphones and Sonos Arc soundbar. This one works exactly as it should and I am able to get all surround formats to work on the Sony and Sonos. Other devices would downmix some formats to 2.1 stereo or not even work at all.

won't pass through truehd like it says it does.

It didn’t work with my Sonos beam gen2 at all. No sound after trying everything. I left several messages for customer support but no one called back so I am returning it.

I have a 12 year old Yamaha RX-V665 receiver. It doesn't support any of the new tech, like Dolby Atmos or DTS:X, which is fine, but it also doesn't output past 1080p, which is a real deal breaker. I have a 4k HDR10+ TV, and the only way up until now to have this tv and receiver setup was to use an optical cable. What sucks tho is the optical cable is only compatible with 5.1 compressed, and it sounds far worse than using the direct HDMI from the receiver. That's where this device solves all my problems. This device allows me to have 4K HDR10+ video direct to my TV, and the audio extracted to an HDMI input to my receiver. So my receiver thinks I have the Roku plugged into it directly, giving me full 5.1 uncompressed, and I still get the full quality from my TV. I've been looking for a device like this for a long time, as the only other solution was buying another expensive receiver to replace my fully functional Yamaha. And I'm so glad it worked out of the box no problems.

Here is my setup NVIDIA RTX3090TI HDMI out to OREI eARC 4K and from there out to my soundbar and to LG HDMI 4K Monitor. Unfortunately, this device fails to work with this setup. It does display video feed and sound to the soundbar but there seems to be timing issues with the signal where the 4K LG Monitor will flicker to black multiple times before it starts working again. I tried to connect it with different HDMI cables that support the signal but no luck. This device might work with Bluray player or gaming console but as far as it goes for PC and GPU support it fails. I ended up finding another device that seems to work without issue of dropping signal. Can be found under this code B0F62S348K here on Amazon. I decided to return this one.

I have a 2022 Vizio TV that is programmed to noise gate. It's been so annoying. Even when I bought a soundbar, the sound still processed through the TV before sending it to the soundbar. I found videos talking about hdmi audio extractors, and granted I did have to look up ports and specs to make sure I got an appropriate extractor, but I had high hopes. So I specifically have my Roku Stick plugged into the input port, and my TV and soundbar plugged into their appropriate eARC ports with eARC cables. While it absolutely fixed 99% of the noise gating, there are a bunch of quirks to this setup. The audio will still play out of the TV even when the soundbar is in use, so you have to mute the TV (my TV's speakers are absolutely garbage, which is why I keep bothering with the soundbar). That being said, the TV and Roku remotes do control the TV volume, but not the soundbar volume. So I mute the TV with its remote, and adjust the volume with the soundbar remote. Since it's not directly connected to the TV, the soundbar volume doesn't display on screen, which is fine. Like I said, the noise gating is virtually gone, but the setup has added a couple quirks to my routine. Also I may be crazy but I THINK the audio sounded a tiny bit better from the soundbar before doing this, except in situations where it was gating sound. But it's barely noticeable, and I'm in no way an audio expert.

I use this device to connect my Apple TV, Sonos arc sound bar and my Samsung TV that doesn't have eARC HDMI. At first, I thought it didn't work and got to contact customer support because the device was not passing surround sound, only stereo. After explaining my setup they indicated to not enable the ARC/Earc button in the front. Something that was against my Audio Engineer instinct and the reason why I never thought about it as a possibility. But this was the solution. I am not able to try Dolby Atmos with my Apple TV but this is a limitation on my Apple TV device that doesn't support it. Only Apple TV 4K will have this option. All in all, great device at an affordable price. Very good size, so I was able to place it behind the TV. Super simple to setup.

​"Si vous avez un excellent récepteur audio (comme un Harman Kardon ou Yamaha) qui ne supporte pas la 4K, mais que vous ne voulez pas le changer, cet extracteur est la pièce manquante. ​J'ai 40 ans d'expérience en électronique et j'ai tout essayé : c'est le seul boîtier qui me permet de garder mon image 4K HDR tout en envoyant un son 5.1 parfait à mon ancien ampli via le port HDMI 'Audio Out'. L'image est fluide, le son est riche et sans aucun délai (lag). ​L'installation est simple, robuste et le résultat vaut largement l'investissement. J'ai maintenant l'impression d'avoir un système à 10 000 $ pour une fraction du prix. Très satisfait !"

I have taken the little bit of time to give the review. Because I have to arrange the soundbar. This extractor eARC port will work through the mobile app of the soundbar. There is mentioned eARC port. You have to enable it. Then the enormous Dolby Atoms sound quality will enjoy. It is better OTT platforms. I am very satisfied to purchase this item for my old TV. I recommend it. This device is better, if you have a eARC port of your TV. This device has capable to extract better dolby atmos sound than your TV. My home is like a cinema hall.

Ideal se teu TV não suporta ou não deixa passar algum tipo de formato de audio para o equipamento de som.

Does work but comes with American plug adaptor, not much use in uk, had to buy another uk adaptor

Esta porquería no da dolby atmos, tengo Appletv 2023, conecte con cables hdmi 2.1 que compré en Amazon, al orei earc, la salida arc/earc a mi Sonos arc que lo tengo con sub 2 y dos era 300 y la out 1 a la pantalla Samsung lo conecte a un puerto hdmi 1 sin arc. Y también lo conecte al arc y en ninguna de las dos me da La configuración del Apple TV no detecta el Sonos arc como que puede manejar el Dolby atmos. Y se queda en 5.1. Espero que el vendedor me aclare esto y mejor regreso su porquería!!!!!
