192KHz HDMI ARC Audio Extractor, Digital to Analog Audio Converter, DAC Audio Converter, Optical/SPDIF Coaxial HDMI ARC to Optical/SPDIF Coaxial Stereo L/R 3.5mm Jack for TV Soundbar Headphones

My old Denon AVR does not have HDMI input, also it requires separate analog input for Zone2. I connected TV HDMI eARC to this converter input, then output to optical for main 5 speaker system and analog (Red & white) to zone2. This works fine without ay time lag even I play both together. This converter has HDMI and Coax output also, so I think it works for almost any combination to split signal out.

Very easy to use. Solved a connection problem

We were not able to pair this unit with Tribond unit..

If you have a home theater setup, please read to the end!I want to be able to extract analog from my optical output from the TV to my home theater. Because of a hearing issue I want to be able to use headphones while the optical link is active. This is the only device I found that had a passthrough for the TV to the home theater plus analog output, making it more convenient than separately buying an extractor and a splitter. I bought one of these a while back and it just made a noise like a buzz saw so I returned it. Why the noise? Because my TV optical output was set to auto so that it would support 5.1 on my home theater.After more study I found out that it will work but you must configure the TV for PCM output. The problem is that if you have a 5.1 or 7.1 home theatre setup, the PCM setting deactivates it. So part of the reason this is a cheap device is that it's only useful for people with simple stereo. None of the products in this class properly explain the issue. Anyway for expedience in dealing with my need I bought it again. This will tide me over until I experiment with a different class of device. The solution is to get an audio extractor that accepts optical 5.1 signals, because that means it does not require the PCM setting. Several of these are available and they *may or may not* work off of a separate splitter. That will be my next purchase. I will keep this in my toolbox as a spare for who knows what future project, but I will not plan to use it long term.

Worked great for hooking up my sound bar that only has an optical cable to my new TV that only has HDMI eARC. Just plugged in the optical cable to output and the HDMI cable into input and turned it on.

I needed to get my TV audio out to traditional speakers and a sound bar, where the TV only does optical out and traditional speakers only do RCA in. I connected an optical cable from the TV to this device, and then optical from this device to the sound bar optical in. I also connected the RCA out from this device to the traditional speakers. It worked perfectly and sounds great!

Ok. I need to tamp the headline a bit. I'm only interested in 2ch audio and I've just powered the thing up. I'm going to give it 50 hrs. or so to 'break-in and warmup' and review this again after that. In my experience most DAC circuits prefer a 24hr warmup and like to be powered on continuously. It was simple to hook up. just unplugged the S/PDIF Coax connector from my current DAC to this new DAC, jacked in with my headphones and started playback from my music server. At first I noticed a pretty firm bias toward high frequencies making this tiring even after a few moments. I also noticed that the bass was kind of indistinct which was surprising considering the amount of detail present. What I did notice, finally, was that on more somewhat complicated rhythms. The music was so confused, I just stopped right there and decided to allow some warmup and break-in to happen. I'll be back once that happens.

Bought the first unit for splitting toslink signal from my pc to both a desktop speakers and a subwoofer and it works great.. unfortunately I had an issue with my 2nd purchase for other similar purpose (no output on both the rca or the 3.5mm), however the seller was great and immediately send me a replacement that works like a charm. Great product for the value.

El producto cumple su función es completo ya que contiene lo acordado en imagen y descripción se eligio por el precio y necesidades de lo que acuerda tener como funcionalidad y cumplió precio y calidad 😉👍

We are able to have my hearing aid and a sound bar both attached to a single optical port on my tv. The hearing aid and sound bar can each have their own volume. It’s a game changer for my wife and self.Thank you just a great little product

Very good quality

I set up this converter and was disappointed when it didn't work. I was surprised that whenever I would touch the steel body it would start working. I found a workaround by grounding the metal case of the unit to my mixer board.

Lo compre para conectar un home theater sony muy viejo, fácil de conectar, funciona perfectamente.
