RS150b HDMI ARC input

Hello,
I have a Sony X800M2 blueray player with a separate HDMI audio output. I connected the HDMI2 output (audio only) to the RS150 HDMI ARC input. Unfortunately no audio playback is possible. How to set up the Rose RS150b (HDMI ARC)? The digital coaxial output works (even with SACD track) from X800 to RS150b.
Many thanks for your help.
Regards Udo

Hello,

Try to activate HDMI ARC in ‘IN/OUT Settings’ menu.

HDMI ARC is activated, but no sound. Coaxial output works.

Hello,

Is the HDMI audio output port in Sony X800M2 ‘HDMI ARC’?
If it’s not ‘HDMI ARC’, you won’t be able to hear sound as CEC control is impossible.
Please check your Sony if it says ‘HDMI ARC’. If it’s not ‘HDMI ARC’, you will have to use coaxial out.

Best Regards,

Hello Klameu,
you need a HDMI ARC Pass Switch between your devices , then it works. In Germany the device costs 70 Euro.

Dear Frank,

thank you for your advice. Which switch do you recommend?

I already have a HDMI switch (Amazon.de) to connect different devices to my TV. But I think this one doesn’t support ARC.

I want connect the Sony „HDMI audio only“ output to the ROSE HDMI ARC input.

Kind regards

Udo

Does HDMI output got option for audio PCM or Packet audio options, if they have use PCM for stereo and Packet for Dolby or similar…

Hello @Siri

Among the HDMI output options, there is a function called PCM Resampling Frequency.
Rose device—>IN/Out Settings—>Gear in the upper left corner on HDMI—>PCM Resampling Frequency.

Thank you
