Not at all a HDMI experienced person that I am, i found this Parts Express sound bar that i built (just for fun) giving me abysmally low volumes on HDMI when connected to the HDMI eARC output from my VU Tv (which is almost brand new), despite all variations possible in the TV Audio Menu (not much here - Output PCM/DDigital/DD Plus/Auto, eARC Auto/off)...
When i tried a bluetooth paring with spotify from the phone, i was able to generate enough volume and even slightly distort the output by the replay gain added, just to check.
I dont want an AVR, i dont want surround sound, seriously, just a center, and this parts express thingy has decent sound, maybe not as GREAT as a pair of Genelecs/what-have-you...
So is there really a HDMI audio amp, or what should i be looking for? HDMI newbie that I am... which is why i put this post in this part of the forum...
cheers
