It’s a gamble, but if you do find an extractor that works, then it should hold up for a long time. Generally, I recommend upgrading your devices so that they all use the same technology and ports, so you can avoid this problem altogether. Also, they tend to be a little bulky and hot. Conclusion: Orei HDA925 is, just like others, boxy and compact device. Unlike cheaper devices, Orei has a very nice and durable aluminum chassis and it’s heavier than the average HDMI audio extractor. On the front side, it has the ON/OFF/ARC button, EDID audio mode selector, and an array of indicators including ARC indicator, output indicators (out1 and out2), and EDID audio mode indicators (2.0, 5.1, and 7.1).

These cables are only a few pounds, and that would be the easiest and cheapest solution. We did not experience any issues while setting up the audio extractor though.
