should i use a 8K Arcana VRR 40Gbps arcana2 with the sonos arc ultra? I am trying to connect a ps5 pro and a projector. I want to be able to use Dolby Atmos. Not sure how to split the audio off from the projector.

Hi
Welcome to the Sonos Community!
As far as I am aware, that Arcana device will have 3 HDMI sockets. One will go to the TV/Projector, one will go to a source device like your PS5, and one will go to your Arc Ultra. You will only need it if your projector has no HDMI-ARC/eARC socket, or if that is it’s only HDMI socket.
The Arcana will take the audio from the input device and give it to the Arc Ultra, while giving the video feed to the projector.
My assumption would be that the projector is not 8K, and you could therefore use the cheaper, earlier version of the Arcana - unless you want to future-proof, of course.
Please note that we do not officially support the use of Arcana, but it should work.
I hope this helps.
