With the GefenTV HDMI to HDMI with Audio Converter, consumers now have a plug-and-play method of creating surround sound audio using the HDMI signal from any Blu-ray player, set-top box, gaming device, or any source using the HDMI format.

Existing surround sound amplifiers and audio/video receivers with no HDMI connectors can be connected directly to the GefenTV HDMI to HDMI with Audio Converter, bypassing the need for purchasing a new audio system while delivering a high fidelity experience that sounds excellent in home theaters of all sizes.

This converter accepts an HDMI signal and outputs it to any HDTV display. Hi-def video resolutions up to 1080p full HD are delivered with deep colour, lip sync and HDCP compliance.

Audio from the HDMI input is also extracted and delivered simultaneously in both digital (optical) and analogue (7.1 LCPM) audio formats. Consumers can select from two-channel, multi-channel and 7.1 surround sound, as they desire.

This product will be on show at the CEDIA US Expo from September 22-26 in Atlanta, Georgia.
