VMA00102 HDMI ARC Audio TV-Adapter with volume control

VMA00102 HDMI ARC Audio Adapter – For headphones and HiFi systems on the TV

The VMA00102 allows you to easily use classic audio devices like stereo systems or headphones with modern TVs featuring HDMI-ARC or eARC connections. The adapter converts the TV's audio signal into analog stereo sound and simultaneously outputs it via RCA and 3.5 mm jack connectors. Volume can be conveniently controlled using your TV remote – perfect for anyone who wants to combine high-quality TV sound with their existing equipment.

Stereo output for HiFi & headphones

The VMA00102 outputs the sound from your television via two parallel analog outputs:

• RCA (Stereo L/R) – ideal for amplifiers, stereo systems or speakers
• 3.5 mm jack (stereo) – suitable for headphones or active speakers

Both outputs can be used simultaneously. This allows you, for example, to permanently connect your stereo system and additionally connect headphones when needed.

Compatible with stereo audio formats

The adapter only processes PCM stereo (2.0). For audio output to work, set the format to "PCM" or "LPCM Stereo" in your TV's audio menu. Multi-channel formats such as Dolby Digital or Bitstream are not supported.

Easy volume control via TV remote control

The volume of the analog outputs can be controlled directly with your TV's remote control – thanks to HDMI-CEC, without any additional devices. This control works for both the RCA and 3.5mm jack outputs, making the listening experience particularly convenient.

Power supply via USB

The VMA00102 is powered via the included USB cable – for example, through a USB port on your TV . As soon as the TV is switched on, the adapter activates automatically. When the TV is switched off, the adapter goes into standby mode. You don't need to do anything else – it operates completely automatically in the background. Alternatively, the adapter can also be powered by an external USB power supply.

Quick setup & easy operation

Installation takes only a few minutes:

1. Connect the adapter to the HDMI-ARC output of the TV.
2. Connect USB cable for power supply
3. Connect a cinch or jack cable to your audio target device.
4. Set the audio format to " PCM Stereo " in the TV menu – done!

Important to know

• When the adapter is activated, many televisions automatically switch off their internal speakers and output the sound exclusively via the HDMI ARC connection.
• It is often not possible to manually switch between internal speakers and an external sound system. The internal speakers only remain active on such a TV when the adapter is unplugged (use the AX130 instead of the VMA00102 if you want to manually switch the audio output between internal and external).
• On some TVs, the volume level is no longer displayed in numbers, but via a simple bar graph with “ + / – ”.
