Key features

This HDMI audio extractor is designed to separate audio and video signals from a single HDMI input, delivering a clean 4K@60Hz video signal to a display while routing high quality audio to external receivers. It supports an ARC function, allowing audio to travel from the TV back to an external soundbar or amplifier, simplifying setups where a separate sound system is preferred. With three audio mode options Pass, 2CH, and 5.1CH, you can tailor the output to your home theatre needs, ensuring compatibility with a range of formats and devices. The unit provides both Optical Toslink SPDIF and 3.5mm AUX stereo outputs, enabling flexible connections to soundbars, receivers, headphones and other audio gear without depending on the TV for sound.

In everyday use, you’ll notice the option to output separate audio streams while keeping the video quality untouched, which is ideal for late night gaming or movie nights where clear dialogue and immersive sound matter. The device supports 4K@60Hz video, 3D, and 1080p formats, and it is designed to work with a broad range of HDMI sources such as Blu-ray players, streaming boxes and gaming consoles. Built to be straightforward, it helps you upgrade your audio chain without replacing your existing display or receiver.

This extractor is compact and is supplied with a 1.2m HDMI cable, giving you flexibility in placement and ease of integration into most AV racks or entertainment centres. Note that to receive audio from both optical and analogue outputs simultaneously, the source must be set to PCM or stereo, the unit does not support Dolby Digital Plus. The kit includes the HDMI cable, the extractor itself, and a power adapter, making it a practical upgrade for those looking to declutter cables and enhance sound quality without a complex installation.

Overall, this device delivers dependable 4K video while offering robust audio options for a more immersive listening experience. It’s a sensible upgrade for homes with multiple audio devices, enabling easier compatibility across different media players and consoles. For users prioritising stable performance and straightforward setup, this extractor provides a solid balance of value and capability, with ARC and multiple output options simplifying integration with existing gear. 🎧📺

The design emphasises reliability and ease of use, with clear manual controls for switching between Pass, 2CH and 5.1CH modes. If you’re looking to improve sound without changing your display, this extractor makes a practical choice, especially for setups where the TV is the central hub and external audio is desired for richer, more immersive playback. The product is compatible with devices that support 4K@60Hz transmission, and manufacturers’ notes suggest using a high quality HDMI 2.0 cable to ensure optimal performance at flagship refresh rates. You’ll appreciate the flexible outputs that accommodate different listening preferences, whether you’re streaming, gaming, or watching high definition content. 🔊
