ESTONE HY-5001 HDMI Audio Extractor

This ESTONE HY-5001 extracts audio from an HDMI source and delivers it through optical Toslink and RCA stereo outputs while passing video to a display. It suits installers who need to separate sound for a legacy amplifier or active speakers without replacing the source device. The compact black unit accepts 1080p signals from players, consoles or streaming sticks and requires external 5 V power.

Sustained signal handling

The converter maintains synchronous separation of video and audio during continuous playback with no reported signal loss. Three selectable audio modes — PASS, 2.0CH and 5.1CH — let the installer match the downstream equipment without reconfiguration mid-session. The short 5-inch pigtail keeps the signal path tidy in a rack or behind a display.

Installation notes

Connect the source to the single HDMI input, attach the display to the HDMI output, then route optical or RCA cables to the audio system. Select the correct audio mode for the connected gear; an incorrect PASS/2.0CH/5.1CH setting is the most common cause of silent or distorted output. The included 5 V adapter and manual complete the setup.

Questions about this item

Does the ESTONE HY-5001 run hot or make noise when left on all day?

The extractor has no fan and draws only 5 V from the included adapter, so it stays cool and silent during continuous use.

What cables or sources must I already own to use the HY-5001?

You need an HDMI source such as a Blu-ray player, console or streaming stick, plus an HDMI display and either an optical Toslink or RCA stereo cable for the audio output you want.

Will the HY-5001 pass 1080p video to my older 1920 x 1080 monitor while sending 5.1 audio to my legacy AV receiver?

Yes, the HDMI output delivers 1080p video unchanged and the audio mode switch lets you select 5.1 CH for the optical Toslink feed to older surround gear.
