FeinTech VAX04101A HDMI eARC Pass Switch 4x1 for 3 HDMI Sources, Soundbar and TV Projectors 4K HDR Dolby Atmos

Running this with a Sonos arc, Sony Arc TV, freesat and 4K bluray.It was a toss up between this and the slightly more expensive HD Fury Arcana.Decided to give this one a punt, and absolutely delighted with it.Quick shipping to UK from amazon euIt works perfectly for all of my devices, and no lip synching issues.Auto detects the last switched on device and audio format - so only need to use the remote if you wish to switch inputs following that.Early versions apparerently had some firmware issues, but this all seems to be ironed out now - plus they added the ability to update firmware on the device itself in the unlikely event it will need further updates.It's also tiny, the images had me thinking it would be much bigger than it is.Running it from a usb 3 socket to dc instead of the adaptor that came with it just for a bit more convenience.Only thing as others have mentioned is the led's are very bright, so you may want to pop some led cover stickers or similar on to tame the intensity.

We purchased this to solve a lipsync issue between our ARC TV and eARC soundbar.It’s a well made product and the customer support was excellent but in the end we had to return it.It actually solved the lipsync problem well but there were some compatibility issues with it in the system. HDR content would drop out visually and sonically at intervals and the tv would often revert back to internal speaker output causing havoc with the soundbar volume.Feintech advised that our Sky satellite box has known unconventional HDR and ARC protocols and this was likely upsetting the VAX. We have no reason to doubt this, from the open and helpful support from Feintech.Also note this is actually a small (but weighty) box and the writing on the front is small.Rated three stars, despite good quality and support, clearly not compatible or stable in all set-ups.
