Hi I have a 75x90 Sony TV with earc HDMI out

 

TV i swall mounted and want to split audio, earc to Sonos Arc Ultra for movies etc but for concerts and music I want to feed to Naim and Kef system Orei make an earc splitter but does not apear to be available in UK at present.

I do not want to use the optical out of TV as tha means accessing menus to change audio set up.

 

Any other suggestions? 

 

Many thanks

Try an eARC compatible switch.

 

Edit: Make sure your splitter/switch/extractor does eARC, a plain HDMI one isn't what you want.
