This device is perfect for users trying to use TV speakers along with headphones, or trying to send an audio signal to a legacy sound system that doesn't have the newer connection. Use the SPDIF Optical to send either 2CH or 5CH audio signal, or the RCA outputs to send 2CH audio signal to your sound system. If you are not able to get audio from either Optical or 3.5mm output ports, please check your input source audio settings and ensure that the audio output is set to either , or or . If the input source device is outputting Dolby Digital+ (DD+) or higher audio format, the extractor will not pass audio through the audio output ports. ## Features - βœ… Extracts digital audio from an HDMI input and converts it to either a 2-channel analog stereo output or a 5.1-channel audio output.

I don't think the JTEC can decode DD+ coming out of the Roku. When I set the Roku to DD+ I get no sound from my surround system fed by the JTEC using the digital optical output. What I have to do is select the 2 channel output from the Roku on the drop down menu and then put my surround system into 5 channel mode which simulates 5 channel from 2 channel. The sound is very good but not DD+. The JTEC works fine decoding other 5.1 formats. **Q: would chromecast works with this device, if chromecast connected to hdmi input, would it delivers audio to the RCA cable?** A: My first gen Chromecast does send audio to the RCA coax outputs, but the sound lacks β€œPunch”. I assume this is because the voltage leaving the coax outputs is less than ideal to drive an amplifier or receiver, forcing you to turn up the volume to compensate. (The coax cables plugged into a small preamp, then coax cables from the preamp to the amplifier or receiver would solve the issue.) **Q: Does this unit pass the HDMI and allow for the rca to pass the audio to an external amp for added speaker output. We have a 5.1 system and want to create a bi amped system. We want the hdmi output to pass to the tv and the RCA to feed an additional power amp for speakers outside.** A: Be aware, this is something I found out after i bought it and had to return it. The sound passed through to the HDMI OUT is determined by the EDID switch. That switch is NOT ONLY controlling the extracted audio. So if you wanted to pass the original video and audio on to an AV Receiver to drive a multi channel system (5.1, etc.) and TV, you will need to set the switch to TV or 5.1. But if you the extracted audio (from the optical or analog jacks) is then intended for headphones (for example), then the headphones will likely not know what to do with that stream and will give you garbage. For me, my Bose Wearable Speakers chose to use the main L/R channels and dropped everything else, including the center channel of voices. The effort was a big fail **Q: This product doesn't really say it won't recode 5.1 to 2.0 for the RCA analog outputs like other products when set for 2.0. Does it do this?** A: I am using the J-Tech for going into an older Sony Hi-Def 1080p projection television circa 2000, the Hi-Def coming through the AVI jack in the back with audio fed into left and right stereo input jacks, since AVI is video only. I don't believe these input jacks on my Sony are Dolby 5.1, so having Dolby RCA out wouldn't make any sense. I have used Coaxial and TOSlink optical outs for Dolby but never RCA left and right out. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Beautifully with the Sonos Playbar *by on Reviewed in the United States May 26, 2013* I'm using this device to get TV Audio to my SONOS PLAYBAR, and my review focuses on this application.Many folks have written about problems in getting Dolby Digital or ANY sound from their TV when connecting the TV's optical out to the PLAYBAR. Some TV's have no optical out, some have no sound from their optical out when using an HDMI source, and some others send only stereo to the optical out. See this link for a list of TVs and their level of Playbar compatibility:sonos.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1931/~/television-compatibility-with-the-playbarA very simple, fairly inexpensive solution to such problems when setting up a Playbar, and one which has been working extremely well for me, is this J-Tech HDMI Audio extractor combined with a vanilla hdmi switch. (monoprice has a 4x1 hdmi switch for $24 OR an 8x1 switch for $79, and amazon has some good alternatives as well),Note that this solution will work even for TVs which are said to be incompatible at the Sonos link above, including those for which Sonos says there's no workaround. My TV is one of those. It's a pioneer elite, and I've yet to find one I'd want to replace it with. But my Sonos, Elite and JTech are working perfectly together, since an HDMI audio extractor (such as this JTech) completely eliminates the need for the TV's digital audio output port.This solution is ideal for folks, like myself, who are already using an HDMI switch or an hdmi switching AV Receiver (in these cases you'd only need to buy this J-Tech extractor), but even if you have to buy an HMDI switch, this approach has some advantages over an integrated hdmi/optical switch: It works for sources that have no digital audio output ports (ie, for sources that send audio only thru their hdmi ports, such as the Roku3); It's easier to find a switch handling ANY number of sources or matrix switching; It's less expensive; And you need to run only 1 cable (just an hdmi cable) from your equipment location to the TV location. Also note that, using a standalone switch, rather than TV switching, makes it much easier to add more sources at any time in the future, especially when you have cables behind walls or under the floor, or when you want to add more sources than the TV can handle.Here's how you set it up:- Plug your switcher's HDMI-out cable into the JTech's HDMI-in port (instead of the TV).- Connect a second HDMI cable from the JTech's HDMI-out to your TV's HMDI-in.- Connect the JTech's optical out to the Playbar.- Choose Digital Out on the JTech and you're done.(You'd locate the JTech near the TV and Playbar, avoiding the need to run the optical cable from the switch, or equipment location, to the tv location)I'm getting dolby digital whenever my source has dolby digital, and stereo whenever my source has stereo. My picture quality and audio are excellent, and video audio sync is perfect. No problems of any kind.(Note however that, as with every other device I've seen, this unit does not convert dolby digital plus to either vanilla DD or to stereo for the digital out. If you're getting DD+ you'd have to switch that off at the source. An example of this is Netflix whose surround sound is DD+ on Roku. Because of that, I have Roku set up to give me stereo from Netflix and DD 5.1 from Amazon. )Hope this helps ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product, using it for over a year without issues *by on Reviewed in the United States July 6, 2016* I have been using this over a year without issues and with excellent performance.I wanted to be able to use my Xbox One in both my living room and my basement home theater room simultaneously and get the benefit of Cable TV integration from my Xbox One in my home theater as well as my living room. With the wireless controllers and the Xbox phone app, I would have full control over my xbox and cable TV set top box from my home theater via WIFI as if I was in the living room. This box, plus 2, 25 foot HDMI cables and an HDMI Splitter, enabled me to do this. All in it was about $85 to make it all work. Great deal!I have an XBox One in my living room hooked up to my Cable box via the HDMI input, an Onkyo 5.1 surround sound center connected via SPDIF and my 60 inch TV via HDMI out through an HDMI Splitter. The HDMI Splitter has two outputs and is located right behind my Xbox one in my entertainment center cabinet. One output goes to the TV and one to my J-Tech Digital HDMI 1080P HDMI to HDMI + SPDIF Audio Extractor via a 25 foot HDMI cable that goes down through the wall, through the basement ceiling to my entertainment center cabinet in my home theater. Then from the J-Tech device to a ceiling mounted 1080P Epson Projector with 120 inch screen via another 25 foot HDMI in my Basement below my living room. The SPDIF output from the J-Tech then connects to a 7.1 Onkyo receiver via SPDIF.The end result is that I get a duplicate 1080P video signal plus digital audio to both my living room and my basement home theater without loss of quality of video signal or sound quality with a combined HDMI run distance of 50 feet, having the JTech device in the middle. I actually can play games, watch Blu-rays, Cable TV in 1080P HD, and use all the Xbox One streaming apps, with full Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound in my living room and DTS 7.1 (or Dolby digital depending on the Xbox One source app) in my basement simultaneously. I expected to get the same video and audio for both, but with the XBox I can choose to send audio signals in different standards to the SPDIF out in my living room and via HDMI to the JTech device in my Home Theater. I was pleasantly surprised this worked, instead of just have two 5.1 signals.One note, I had to set my Xbox One to output uncompressed audio digital signal through the HDMI port so that the JTech could pass that to my downstairs receiver at full fidelity and let the receiver decode it as needed.This has worked beyond my expectations and has been working perfectly for a year. I have even considered getting another one or two of these, and a 4 way HDMI splitter to replicate this to my bedroom and my back porch, both of which have their own audio systems. Only issue would be run length to those rooms would be longer than 25 feet and I would need some boosters for HDMI. I probably will do it eventually now that I have confidence in this device. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Extractor works. *by on Reviewed in the United States July 25, 2018* This review receives 5 Stars because I was able to utilize the RCA stereo output to supply my Sennheiser audio headset with a usable signal and that is why I bought the "box". I received the J-Tech Digital Premium Quality HDMI 2.1CH/5.1CH Audio Extractor, Model JTDAT5CH/JTD-ID:80 in a soft side mailing envelope along with two HDMI cables I ordered to connect the "box" with. Connecting was simple with the Roku Ultra HDMI output, connecting the Roku out to the "box" in, "box" out to my Onkyo AV receiver, Streaming Box HDMI #3 connection in. The "box" RCA connections were made from the "box" to the AV Analog In #4 RCA in connections. I plugged in the "box" power supply into an electrical outlet, then plugged in the power supply connection into the "box" power supply. The red light on the "box" turned on. I then selected ROKU on the AV receiver, which already was set up to "turn on" the system (TV, AV Rec, Roku) to view audio/video from the Roku through the AV receiver and on to the TV. I confirmed that audio was normal through the AV receiver out to the speakers as usual. The video came on at the TV as usual. I turned on the Sennheiser headset, put it on and did not hear any audio. I selected on the AV receiver the Satellite reception and sound came through the AV receiver system and also into my headset - normal. I reselected Roku and within a couple of seconds, audio and video from the Roku came on through the AV receiver but not through the headset. I tell you all this just to remind you to make sure you understand how a AV receiver works. I should have thought about this prior to connecting the "box". My Onkyo has Zone 2 and that is what outputs audio to my headset. I had failed to understand and set up Zone 2 for my Roku. I went into the Setup of the Onkyo, went into Input/Output menu and selected Analog output to the proper output to match the HDMI input - Streaming Box #3 HDMI with Analog #4 output. I then selected Zone 2 to Streaming Box and sound turned on in my headset. So, the box worked. Then, I checked the position of the switch, Bypass, 2CH Stereo, 5.1CH and it was selected to 5.1CH. I thought that can't be, RCA outputting 5.1?? I selected 2CH stereo and both the audio and video turned off. After a couple of seconds, both the audio and video came back on. Video looked good but audio seemed the same as before but what could I tell - I was listening to 2 channel stereo - I think. I selected Bypass on the switch and the audio/video turned off and after a couple of seconds came back on. Video seemed the same, audio also. No matter where I put the switch it seemed that nothing changed on audio or video. I left the switch in Bypass, headset playing audio and the AV receiver providing sound and the TV playing video. Well, okay I get what I want - audio through the headset and Roku seems to be good. And, I learned some more about my Onkyo AV receiver. The "box" and cables were delivered within the two days provided by Prime, in a large padded envelope, in a new package and I used the two new 18" HDMI cables to plug in the "box". I recommend buying the "box" because it gives me headset audio and still allows audio to be passed on to the AV receiver as though nothing changed. One thing I have not done is to check the audio programming when streaming a movie from either Netflix or Amazon through the "box" to check the AV receiver decoding Dolby. If that works I will not be updating this review. If it doesn't work - I will update the review to provide those comments. Good Luck - the box seems to be "plug -n-play". ## Frequently Bought Together - J-Tech Digital Premium Quality 1080P HDMI to HDMI + Audio (SPDIF + RCA Stereo) Audio Extractor Converter (JTDAT5CH) - Tan QY 2RCA to 2RCA Cable 3Ft, Gold-Plated 2 RCA Male to 2 RCA Male Stereo Audio Cable for Home Theater, HDTV, Gaming Consoles, Hi-Fi Systems (3Ft/1M) - PROZOR 192KHz Digital to Analog Audio Converter DAC Digital SPDIF Optical to Analog L/R RCA Converter Toslink Optical to 3.5mm Jack Adapter for PS3 HD DVD PS4 Amp Apple TV Home Cinema --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1424795-j-tech-digital-premium-quality-4k-30hz-hdmi-to-hdmi](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1424795-j-tech-digital-premium-quality-4k-30hz-hdmi-to-hdmi) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-26*
