HDMI 2.0 Audio Extractor

The SMUGDESK Torpedo Nova separates audio from an HDMI video source while passing 4K@60Hz HDR video to a display. It complies with HDCP 2.2 and provides HDMI loopout with ARC, Optical SPDIF and RCA L/R analogue outputs for flexible audio routing.

Home-theatre builders and console users

Suits anyone connecting modern HDMI sources to legacy amplifiers, soundbars or active speakers that lack HDMI inputs. The standalone audio mode also serves dedicated music playback without a screen. Not for installations that require HDMI 2.1 bandwidth or audio formats beyond Dolby Digital, DTS and PCM.

4K@60Hz video pass-through with multi-output audio

Handles protected 4K HDR streams at 60 frames per second while simultaneously feeding digital and analogue audio zones. Headroom ends at the HDMI 2.0 link; higher refresh rates, 8K resolution or object-based surround codecs are not supported.

Questions about this item

Do I need an HDMI 2.0 source and an HDMI 2.0 display cable to use the extractor?

Yes, the unit passes 4K@60Hz video through its HDMI 2.0 loopout, so both the source and the display link must support HDMI 2.0 for full resolution.

Will my older amplifier with only RCA inputs work with this extractor?

The extractor provides RCA L/R analog stereo output alongside Optical SPDIF, so a legacy amplifier can connect directly via the RCA terminals.

How can I verify the extractor is passing audio correctly after I connect everything?

Play Dolby Digital, DTS or PCM content and confirm sound from the soundbar, amplifier or speakers connected to the HDMI ARC, Optical or RCA outputs.
