Best HDMI 2.1 4K+ HDR AVR (Audio Video Receivers) for Consoles [2020]

I haven't looked into it enough but I don't think we'll start seeing 48Gbps HDMI ports until we get some 12-bit panels.

 

I have a Sharc and it does not work with my setup (Sony XH90/Marantz receiver).

 

I wonder why there's no generic Chinese knock off of that yet. There's a ton for the usual arc/Dolby splitter thingy. But none for earc

 

It just does not work (for me). It might be a setup problem as well, I am not motivated to spend more time investigating anymore.

 

I've used a Feintech VAX01202 HDMI eARC extractor with my LG C1. They have 2 modes so you need to use the right one and simply enable eARC output on the TV.

Afaik all they do is merge empty/black video frames with the eARC stream so older AV Receivers don't get confused. Worked instantly with my Pioneer LX86. Unfortunately that AV was already on life support due some chip soldering issues.

 

Whoa there's also already Chinese version from aliexpress. But unfortunately still priced at the same price as non Chinese brand.

This thing gonna be a pretty neat device once its price goes down half
