HDMI ARC Cable: Buy in Nairobi, from Pro-Logic Technologies
Modern home audio is smarter than ever — and HDMI ARC is at the heart of it. ARC, or Audio Return Channel, allows a single HDMI cable to carry audio both to and from your TV, eliminating the need for a separate audio cable between your television and soundbar or AV receiver. At Pro-Logic Technologies in Nairobi, we supply quality HDMI ARC cables that unlock the full potential of modern TV audio systems.
What Is an HDMI ARC Cable?
An HDMI ARC cable is a standard HDMI cable used to connect a TV’s ARC-enabled HDMI port to the HDMI ARC input of a soundbar or AV receiver. The “Audio Return Channel” functionality allows the TV to send its audio output back down the HDMI cable to the soundbar — meaning you only need one cable for both the incoming video signal and the outgoing audio, rather than a separate optical or analogue audio cable.
All standard HDMI cables support ARC. For the enhanced eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) standard — which supports higher-bandwidth audio including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X in their full lossless formats — an HDMI 2.1 cable is required.
Benefits of Using HDMI ARC
Single cable simplicity. One HDMI cable between your TV and soundbar handles everything — no additional optical cable required for audio output.
CEC control integration. HDMI ARC works alongside HDMI CEC, allowing your TV remote to control your soundbar’s volume and power — reducing the number of remotes needed.
Automatic audio switching. When you switch inputs on your TV, HDMI ARC automatically routes audio to the connected soundbar or receiver — no manual input switching on the audio device required.
eARC for lossless audio. An HDMI 2.1 eARC connection supports lossless Dolby TrueHD and DTS:X audio formats — the highest quality audio available from streaming platforms and Blu-ray discs.
ARC vs. eARC — Which Do You Need?
- HDMI ARC — supports Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 (lossy compressed formats); sufficient for most soundbar setups
- HDMI eARC — supports Dolby Atmos (TrueHD) and DTS:X in full lossless quality; required for premium Atmos soundbars and AV receivers
Our team at Pro-Logic Technologies can advise which standard your equipment supports and recommend the right cable accordingly.
