WyreStorm 4K/60 In-line HDMI Scaler with DSP-Controlled Audio Breakout, Dolby TrueHD™ & DTS-HD™ Downmixing and eARC Output | CON-H2-DD-EARC
Bringing the latest technology currently only seen on the latest HDMI 2.1 devices the CON-H2-DD-EARC tackles the demands of today’s technology head-on and provides a multi-pronged approach to the challenges of the modern residential AV system. It combines a powerful set of features that can both down-mix Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD audio to stereo and scale incoming 4K UHD content to 1080p. The DSP-controlled stereo audio output allows adjustment of both volume and EQ via a control system and the unit can be customized further by manually controlling the down-mixing to the S/PDIF and HDMI outputs. ARC/eARC breakout of audio from a connected smart TV completes the formidable line-up of this trail-blazing device.
4K HDR & DOLBY VISION
With an 18Gbps HDMI input the CON-H2-DD-EARC supports video content up to 4K/60 4:4:4. Compatibility with the latest 4K specifications such as HDR10 and Dolby Vision ensures maximum video fidelity no matter the source you connect.
DOWNMIXING & DSP
Powerful audio capabilities allow up to 7.1 Dolby True HD and DTS-HD signals to be downmixed to stereo RCA for multi-zone amplifiers. A built-in DSP allows for the audio level and EQ to be adjusted for the stereo RCA output.
ARC & EARC
Easily send audio from apps on your Smart TV with support for Audio Return Channel. Take it a step further with eARC. With support for Enhanced Audio Return Channel, you can now send 7.1 audio directly from your TV and downmix or de-embed into an external audio system.
VIDEO SCALING
With maximizing compatibility in mind, the CON-H2-DD-EARC’s HDMI output features a powerful scaler. Seamlessly connect a 4K HDR source and scale to 1080p if connecting to an older display.
