Using eARC
The “e” in eARC stands for “enhanced”. AV equipment with eARC HDMI sockets enjoy greater bandwidth and speed compared to regular ARC sockets. This allows a wider frequency range and uncompressed audio resulting in more detailed, rich and vibrant sound delivery. Using eARC HDMI ports and compatible cables also allows audio formats such as Dolby Atmos to be played at their full capacity. Your soundbar comes with a high-speed HDMI cable to take advantage of the extra bandwidth off ered by eARC.
