THENAUDIO SHARC EARC AUDIO CONVERTER“Converts TV EARC audio to a suitable format for your current sound system.“ - Pure pristine digital audio via standard digital AV output and optical SPDIF - High fidelity analog audio via line-level and headphone outputs - Implements EARC lip-sync delays with an internal delay circuitry Tired of the continuous upgrade cycle in AV electronics? With the current slew of high-end movie streaming services we are seeing complex audio tracks such as Atmos Mat, DTS:X being played along with the video content. This is a win for the consumer experience but comes at a force-fed high price tag. Currently only the latest and greatest sound systems can process the new standard audio transport from the new TV. This transport is called EARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel). Even as great as this new capability is, the downside is that each component in the home theater system must support it. Upgrade is only possible by purchasing new equipment that has the hardware compatibility. Near ALL sound systems sold in the past several years are fully capable of supporting the latest audio formats but simply won't do it due to the lack of EARC capability. SHARC EARC Audio Converter was developed to combat this eternal upgrade cycle. SHARC can handle interfacing the new formats and will optimize the audio to utilize the current existing sound system fully well into the future. - NOTE ON SONOS ARC: Direct all Sonos ARC related questions to Thenaudio before purchasing so we can assist in choosing the correct product. Sonos ARC already has eARC receiver so SHARC is not needed.
