My house is wired for ceiling speakers. I want to use AirPlay 2 to control them all so I’ll have multi room audio. Can I buy a multi zone power amp and connect an Apple TV (3 or 4) to this extractor which connects to the power amp input so i can stream without TVs? And can I do 1 per each zone?

Will this decode DD+ to DD?

BEST ANSWER: Hi Bob, I can't answer reliably since I am only pulling the audio off to feed a personal listening system in our bedroom. Reading the specs makes me think the converter pulls off the audio stream and converts it to stereo, coax, or optical outputs. I don't know that it converts the "digital audio compression scheme" of the input.

From what I can tell based on my experience, it simply passes through whatever audio signal the HDMI cable carries, in whichever form it was originally transmitted in; there isn't a decoding or encoding option.

I just want to connect this device from my standard hd tv to a soundbar with an optical audio input, the soundbar can do 7.1. Can this device turn the output from the tv to 7.1 to the soundbar?

BEST ANSWER: Similar to the question/answer above, you're limited to Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS 5.1 if you connect by optical or coaxial. You'll need to connect to the soundbar by HDMI to get 7.1, which I'm assuming your soundbar has if it can do 7.1...

My PC has a 4k GFORCE video card, I need to feed the 4K signal to this and split the audio signal so that I may plug OPTICAL or COAX out to my receiver and get DTS 7.1 Sound.
My receiver only takes HDMI 1.4a, that's why I need the 4K Signal going straight to the TV. Will this work with the 4K signal?

Does the HDMI out cable have to be plugged in at both ends ? (This box to TV)
in order to have audio output from the 3.5 mini jack plug to rcas.
I have another brand that does and I want one that does not as I do not need the video out.
Only the audio out.

could be defective-- causes the screen to flicker and flash
It arrived on time, but I think it must be defective. The TV screen flashes for the first 30 minutes it is on, when it is attached to the stereo system. I have contacted Monoprice two times about a return/exchange and I am still waiting. I can not recommend this product since it seems to be faulty.

Causes Screen to Go Black Intermittently
I was using my PS4 and monitor just fine before I got this. Now my screen goes black for a few seconds intermittently. I've tried various settings on the monitor, but the problem doesn't go away. I'm also using all new HDMI cables, all are firmly installed. Problem is intermittent and it seems like a design flaw with this box. The audio stay on, it's just the picture going out.

Audio Converter
The converter works as described. Easy to install but couldn't get sound through the co-axial cable. Had to use an optical cable. We are now able to listen to sound surround while watching our projected shows. Definitely would recommend this product.

Easy hook up. The sound from my computer now plays through my tuner and my computer shows on my big screen TV, previously my computer would show on the TV but no sound would output from the tuner. HDMI Audio Converter fixed it!
