🔊 HDMI ARC Audio Extractor — eARC, Dolby 5.1 & DTS 5.1, 192kHz/24bit, Optical Output — Plug & Play for Soundbars & Amps

Got a smart TV with HDMI ARC but your trusty soundbar, amp, or home theatre system only takes an optical (Toslink) input? Frustrating, isn't it — you're stuck with tinny built-in TV speakers because the ports don't match. This compact HDMI ARC audio extractor solves that in seconds. It pulls the digital audio straight from your TV's ARC/eARC port and converts it to a clean optical signal, unlocking 5.1 surround sound, deep bass, and crisp dialogue through your existing kit. No complicated setup, no external power brick, no drivers — just plug it in and enjoy cinema-quality audio from your sofa.

✅ Key Features

• 🎵 ARC Audio Extraction — Connects to your TV's HDMI port labelled "ARC" and converts the signal to optical (Toslink/SPDIF). Finally link your older soundbar, AV receiver, or amplifier to a modern telly without swapping gear.

• 🔊 eARC & Multi-Channel Surround — Works with enhanced ARC (eARC) too. Supports Dolby 5.1 and DTS 5.1 surround sound formats, so you get proper multi-channel immersion — explosions, dialogue, and music all in the right place.

• 🎧 High-Resolution Lossless Audio — 192kHz/24-bit sampling delivers detailed, accurate sound reproduction. Hear every nuance without compression or quality loss.

• 📶 Enhanced ARC Bandwidth — Higher bandwidth than standard ARC means stable, low-latency transmission of lossless audio. No dropouts, no glitches, just smooth playback.

• 🔌 Plug & Play, Zero Drivers — All-in-one integrated cable design saves space and skips the software headache. Connect to the TV's ARC port, plug in the optical cable to your audio device, add USB power, and you're done.

• 🔋 USB Powered — Draws power from your TV's USB port or any 5V USB charger (1A recommended). No bulky adapter cluttering your media unit. Clean, simple, and out of sight.

⚠️ Important Notes — Please Read Before Buying

• ARC/eARC Port Only — This device ONLY works when plugged into a TV's HDMI port labelled ARC or eARC. Connecting to a standard HDMI port will NOT output audio. Double-check your TV's port labels before ordering.

• One-Way Transmission — Signal flows TV → audio device only. It cannot be reversed, and it cannot connect to a soundbar's ARC port.

• Volume Control — Your TV remote will NOT adjust the volume. Use your soundbar, amplifier, or AV receiver remote to control audio levels. This is normal behaviour for optical output.

• USB Power Required — If your TV's USB port doesn't supply enough current, use a separate 5V/1A USB mains adapter. No power = no audio pass-through.
