Amazon Basics HDMI Audio Extractor - 4K HDMI to HDMI, SPDIF & RCA

The Amazon Basics HDMI Audio Extractor converts the audio signal embedded in an HDMI video stream into separate analog outputs, so you can enjoy high-quality sound on legacy receivers, soundbars, or home-theater systems that don't have HDMI audio support. It delivers full-resolution 4K video (up to 30 Hz) to your display while sending two-channel left-right or SPDIF stereo audio to your audio equipment, preserving both uncompressed and compressed formats for crystal-clear playback. The unit is housed in a sturdy metal case that protects the electronics and fits neatly behind your TV or AV rack, providing a reliable solution for any setup without the need for additional adapters. Compatible with Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, streaming sticks, PCs and cameras, this extractor lets you keep your existing sound system while upgrading to 4K video, making it a cost-effective way to modernize your home entertainment. Installation is plug-and-play: connect your HDMI source to the input, run an HDMI cable to the display, and attach either the RCA or SPDIF output to your audio receiver. No drivers or configuration required. The default setting outputs 2.0-channel audio, but you can switch to 5.1-channel output when needed, giving flexibility for both stereo music listening and surround-sound movie experiences.
