Audio extraction for home-theatre setups

The LUOM HY-5001 splits an HDMI source into a passed-through HDMI signal plus separate optical Toslink and RCA stereo outputs. It serves owners of soundbars, AV receivers or powered speakers that lack HDMI inputs but need digital or analogue audio from a Blu-ray player, games console or streaming stick.

Compact aluminium housing

A short integrated cable ends in a single HDMI female input, while the box provides one HDMI output, one optical SPDIF port and one RCA L/R pair. The three-position switch selects PASS, 2.0CH or 5.1CH audio modes, letting the user match the extractor to the connected sound system without software configuration.

Passive video path with external 5 V supply

Video passes through untouched at up to 1080p resolution and 36-bit deep colour, while the extractor draws modest power from the included 5 V adaptor. No fan is present, so operation is silent, and the unit adds negligible heat to an equipment rack or behind a display.

Questions about this item

What HDMI version does the extractor use and what maximum resolution does it support?

The unit uses HDMI 1.4b and supports video up to 4K at 30 Hz and 1080p at 36-bit deep colour.

What physical connections and power does the HY-5001 require to fit in my setup?

It needs one HDMI input, passes through one HDMI output, adds optical Toslink and RCA stereo outputs, and draws power from the included 5 V adapter.

How do I set the audio mode correctly and what common step is missed?

Use the PASS, 2.0CH or 5.1CH switch to match your sound system; the step often missed is selecting 5.1CH for surround instead of leaving it on PASS.
