HDMI to HDMI with Optical SPDIF and RCA L/R Audio Converter Extractor Splitter De-embedder (HDMI Input, HDMI + Digital/Analog Audio Output) Review

Doesn't support latest versions of Dolby Digital Plus, only up to 5.1.1 surround I think. That being said, it partially helps resolve some of the weird kinks I had when getting the new soundbar to work with the Vizio Smart TV.

Works like a charm, allowing you to use an HDMI audio channel to add a second amplifier to your living room outdoor sound system. Works for both music playing through AppleTV and tracking what's happening during gaming while checking the food on the grill.

Works well. Audio is not sent to the TV simultaneously via HDMI and RCA/Optical. So if you want 2-zone audio, this isn't what you want. If you just want to output stereo audio to RCA/optical jacks without passing audio through to HDMI, that's fine.

This product works as advertised with RCA outputs. I couldn't test the optical SPDIF port because none of my receivers have this input (I know, moving with the times). However, it gets the job done and allows me to hear music from my Fire TV through my stereo with much better speakers than my TV. good value

Bought 2 of these just over 3 years ago. They did great work while they worked. One lasts about a year. The second just stopped working. They are inexpensive and easy to use. But they don't seem to last forever. I hardly think 3 years is a reasonable lifespan for such a device. If you know how long the more expensive ones last, you can compare the price you paid with the overall life expectancy before you buy. They seem to last 1 to 3 years at most.

Excellent product. It is very well constructed and easy to learn and use. I recently had a Comcast Xfinity in my house and the second TV remote only had an HDMI cable (no TosLink). For some known reason (found online) my Sony Bravia TV has intermittent audio on the TosLink output. This forces me to connect my PS3, Xfinity box and DVD player directly (via a 3-position TosLink switch) to the input on my home theater system. So I needed this product to get TosLink from my Xfinity box to my sound…

Most of us know that Revain has a lot of pros and a few cons. With that in mind, I've ordered two fairly similar products from Revain. I have this product as well as an HDMI 3x1 switcher (HDMI 3x1 switcher with Optical SPDIF and RCA L/R audio output, 3-port HDMI audio splitter with remote control, supports ARC, MHL, 4kx2k, Full 3D, 1080P) and purchased THIS PRODUCT WAS A FAILURE. The HDMI output worked but the RCA audio output did not. I didn't check the optical output as I was splitting audio…
