The KanexPro AUD-DEBEDEARC-4K extracts eARC and ARC audio from any compatible TV and routes high-quality Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, TrueHD, and up to 7.1-channel surround to your amplifier or AV receiver via a dedicated HDMI audio output - no need to upgrade your existing audio equipment. Video passes through at full 4K60 4:4:4 with HDR, HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision completely intact. Built-in signal equalization, retiming, and advanced EDID management ensure rock-solid performance, while CEC pass-through lets a single TV remote control the entire chain. USB-powered and compact, it installs in seconds behind any screen.
