Thank You very much for this link. It could help I’m sure. For reasonable price. 
I will check  Because I need to understand clearly how it works. 

Just in case you decide for any reason not to get a new TV, I thought I would explain the Extractor.

I’m assuming that your Source has an HDMI Output.   You would run an HDMI cable from the Source Output to the HDMI Input of the J-Tech.   Then you would run a HDMI cable from the J-Tech HDMI Output to the HDMI Input of the TV.   In addition, you would need a Optical cable.  The Optical cable would run from the JTech Optical Output to the Sonos Optical to HMDI adapter.  Then plug the HDMI end of the Adapter into the Sonos speaker.

All the best, 

Michael

    Thank You Very Much MSterling for these very clear explanations. 
    With a minor investment, I should be able to connect my actual TV with the ARC. 

    Does Dolby Sound from ARC work ?

    Many thanks for your help,

    @BriNo Dolby Digital is supported.  But DD+ is not.

    Here’s more information that I find quite useful.
