Connecting AMP to TV

I recently purchased a new Amp and wired speakers and ethernet wired to my network hub in the house.  My TV as well as other electronics are also attached to this network hub.  My TV is nowhere near this new AMP, so an HDMI connection is not practical.

 

Occasionally it would be nice to broadcast the sound from the TV to speakers in other rooms.  Since everything is network connected (ethernet), is there a way to get TV sound from these speakers?

 

thx

No, the HDMI-ARC connection on the Amp is the only way to get TV audio.

I have no experience with this unit, but it may work if there is a dedicated network cable between the TV and AMP. One problem that you may experience is lip sync issues.

You could use a Sonos device with a Line-In connector placed near the TV and hooked to the TV’s Line-Out to get sound to your other Sonos. There would be a delay / lip sync issues that would only be apparent when looking at the TV.
