DVDO 8K HDMI 2.1 Audio Extractor with eARC for Soundbars

The DVDO-AudioE-3 is an 8K HDMI 2.1 audio extractor that de-embeds audio from an HDMI source or a TV's ARC/eARC channel and outputs it over HDMI to a soundbar. It addresses a common installation gap: getting full-quality audio from newer-generation TVs to soundbars, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X delivery from an eARC TV to a Sonos Arc, Beam, or other eARC soundbar.

HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3 compliance brings 48Gbps FRL bandwidth with video pass-through up to 8K60 4:2:0 12-bit or 4K120 4:4:4 12-bit, plus VRR, ALLM, QMS, QFT, and SBTM. HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG pass through untouched, while audio support extends to LPCM 7.1, Dolby TrueHD, Atmos, DTS-HD Master Audio, and DTS:X. CEC control and volume commands from the TV reach the source and sound system, and the compact metal enclosure simplifies placement.
