How's the audio latency? I bought a different extractor to connect between Apple TV 4k and my stereo (Sonos Play 5), but there's a noticeable audio delay.
Franklin L
on Apr 27, 2018
BEST ANSWER: There isn't any. It's actually the reason I ended up with this one. Everything passes though with no issue. The only thing is if the source (like the apple TV) changes from 2CH to Surround, there is a 1 second pause of no audio (could also just be my older receiver).

I use it to extract audio to my stereo system. There is a slight delay if I have the TV volume on at the same time as my stereo system causing an echo effect. All I do is turn down the TV volume.

You’ll get a delay with a Play 5 no matter what, they’re not made to sync with tv audio like a playbar or playbase is.

Will this unit pass through the audio over the HDMI cable to the TV AND ALSO output the audio to the line out or optical jack? Or does it strip the audio from the HDMI output?

BEST ANSWER: I have this unit so I can watch and listen to my TV. When I want better quality sound, I pipe the audio out from this device to my stereo system. It doesn't strip out the audio from the hdmi signal, it just sends a copy of the audio out the line out jack or optical.

The unit does not strip the audio from the HDMI stream. It simply extracts the 5.1 audio stream and outputs it to the optical output OR extracts the stereo stream and outputs it to the analog mini jack.

BEST ANSWER: As a consumer, I'm not sure but the output on the HDMI audio extractor seems very strong and clear. It drives my 65" OLED TV wonderfully on a 10ft high quality HDMI cable. I think more importantly, you should check whether or not the HDMI extender you are going to use will support 4K 18Gbps and HDCP 2..2 over the distance you are planning to cover without signal loss.

I need to extract Atmos sound to the sound bar, but since this doesn't have a HDMI audio out, am I correct that it won't work? Are there any options to separate 4k 18gbps and Atmos/DTS:X?
Jaro S
on Jan 9, 2019
BEST ANSWER: So there’s a couple options that look similar to the pic of what you were inquiring. First, there IS an hdmi out, must be on the other side of the box that the pic doesn’t show. But if you zoom in, you can see the light for “hdmi out”.
So I’ve used these quite a bit to get 2ch analog audio out on blurays for distributed audio. Where you ask about ATMOS, I see there’s PID 24478 that looks like it holds the 18gbps but it doesn’t say if it’s 5.1 or 7.1! The pid 13348 mentions 7.1, but only 10gbps.
Monoprice has amazing support, but it’s only on their chat deal on their website. But ask a few of those more technical questions with them to figure out the best option.

I wanted to go out of my SACD player via HDMI-then can i go via Optical to my Amp? (Amp has optical in but no HDMI) Will it lose any quality of the SACD?
New User U
on Mar 20, 2019
BEST ANSWER: It will pull the full audio signal out of HDMI and send it to the optical out in the Blackbird. I get full surround processing in my setup (no downconversion to bitstream, although that's an switchable option). But I don't know why you wouldn't just go SACD optical/toslink or coax straight to your amp. I've NEVER seen an SACD deck that had HDMI, but not a toslink or coax output.

Question related to Blackbird 4K HDMI audio extractor (#24278). The switch in the Input section has three options TV, Bitstream and 2-CH. If I understand correctly setting to Bitstream, simply passes the bitstream to the output. Does setting to 2-CH decode the bit stream to 2 channels and sends to output ? What does setting to TV mean ? Thanks in advance for the answers

BEST ANSWER: From the manual: "TV/Bitstream/2CH Switch: Allows selection of the audio format. The TV option sets the audio output to that of the connected display. The Bitstream option passes the audio output from the video source device and the 2CH option sets audio to 2-channel stereo." There's no mention of up or down conversion; just straight pass-through.

On the pamphlet that came with this, under specifications, it lists LPCM 5.1 under Optical Audio Formats. Is that a mistake, or has anyone been able to get that format to work? From what I've read on the internets, S/PDIF can't do LPCM 5.1, or any uncompressed surround formats.

I have this product, but I have only tested the analog stereo output, which seems to boost the signal too high for my liking. Even at zero volume on my powered speakers I get sound. Next volume step is too loud to be lowest for me. So I figured I'm gonna try the digital optical output with an external dac. Before I purchase an expensive dac , I just wanna make sure it works together with the external dac unit. How does the digital output work? Does it downsample all surround sound to stereo when switched to stereo mode? Does it recompress the sound or alter/degrade the original signal? The Dac probably only understands stereo uncompressed pcm from the decive, does it even output that?

Limited EDID manipulation
This extractor works just fine when either (a) the display already supports audio or (b) no display is connected (in which case the extractor will generate a dummy, audio-capable EDID).
However, if you connect a display that doesn't support audio (e.g. a computer monitor), the extractor will pass its EDID through untouched (no matter the position of the switch) and the source will refuse to output audio, since it won't see an audio-capable sink.
There are competing products that support full EDID manipulation (i.e. audio injection into a non-audio-capable display's EDID) that are much cheaper, smaller, lighter, and don't even require external power.

Great but one thing....
Easy to setup, just plug and play. Really good audio quality to my active speakers. Well defined sound with big soundstage and clear bass. Everything is good but one thing, there is no volume knob or a way to control the volume of the sound. It is very loud even at the lowest volume on my active speakers built-in volume setting. Otherwise a great product!

Good 4k UHD, HDCP 2.2 audio extractor.
This audio extractor is one of the best for HDCP 2.2 and 4K UHD. The only thing I wish is instead of the 1/8" stereo jack, that it would be separate RCA jack, one for the left channel, one for the right channel. That way I can use my own interconnects, rather than buying a 1/8" stereo mini to RCA male adapter cable. The video passthrough is excellent, although I have not tried using the output with an AV preamp or receiver. The nice thing is it seems to improve video quality from 1080p to 4K. I don't know why, but visually it seems like it amplifies the HDMI output signal a bit.

Works perfectly
My receiver passes audio to TV from HDMI but doesn't send it to the speakers. My Roku only has HDMI out. This box extracts the audio and sends it out an optical port, which I connect to my receiver. Worked perfectly the first time...
