Toward the bottom of the info: "Product Description AmazonBasics High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet (6.5 Feet / 2.0 Meters) 2pack. The item supports 3D and Audio Return. " So I'd say "yes it does"

I prefer to hook my critical video equipment, especially reference equipment, directly to my monitor. You can use the ARC HDMI to get TV sound out of the Receiver.there 'has' to be 'some' information lost in the translation, imo.

Dotis is correct. Your HDMI cable from the receiver needs to be plugged into the HDMI (ARC) plug. Then you need to configure that plug to send sound back to the receiver. You do this by activating the ARC function in your TV's settings. I don't have a VISIO TV so I don't know exactly how you do that. ARC stands for Audio Return Channel and it simply needs to be turned on.

Sergio.....I wish I could be of assistance to you. But this was a gift for a "techie" friend and have no idea re: the cables. My apologies and I hope you find the correct answer.

Yeah that's how mine is connected to my home theater. It also features an HDMI arc (audio return).

Hi there, I found out that all these cables are useless! Only the converter device worked for me! Of course I have not checked them with every equipments, but I wasted money on five or six different cables, and none of them actually worked for any degree of satisfaction! And I was too lasy to return them, mainly because I lost the track of them when I bought them and what was the name of the cable!

It is HDMI 1.4a output (- Supports Blu-ray Stereoscopic 3D with HDMI Port), so you will have multichannel audio with ARC. You can even have 5.1 through the optical (Toshlink) output via this board (no ARC though, but pure DTS stream at 1.5 mbit/s using DTS connect).

I am not sure the function of ARC, but it does do audio with HDMI. Input devices also provide audio as well.

Thanks Justin, I appreciate the feedback.Do you know if the cables are proprietary, meaning that you cannot use a longer cable?

I bought one of those audio cables with the red and white tips, cost me about 8 bucks. Its been a while since I used it but if I remember correctly the sound only came out of the front 3 speakers via this method if thT IS problem for you. Hope this helped.

I've been trying to get the ARC to work on my tv for a week. Went thru every device/connection scenario in my head a million times. Gave myself a massive headache. Swapped cables, re-rigged differently, etc.Talked to Yamaha rep twice [yamaha RX-V667 receiver], talked to Samsung 'experts' twice.I finally decided to go back to the basics. "Does this tv even support ARC??"rep lookingrep lookingrep lookingnope.I don't feel stupid.*LOL*

These do not pass ethernet or ARC. These are not 1.4 compliant. As far as powerline ethernet. I have never used in that fashion, but given what I know about both technologies I highly doubt it would work.

I am not sure. I was not using them for audio. I would expect the pins to be thru and do the same as a straight thru cable.

No, the USB/RCA "returns" can be sent to the Headphones or Control Room Output; but not as an Input that can be actively mixed. This return is more of a confidence audio return.

ARC (audio return channel) is the standard of the HDMI high speed (1.4V) . This adapter support the funciton of the ARC.Please make sure you are using the cable which can support the HDMI high speed standard ,too.

I'm not sure.... I don't see anywhere that is says ARC - but I do use one remote for everything. I have one cable from receiver to tv and one cable from sound bar to tv and the blue ray is plugged into the receiver. Sorry I don't really know about ARC - I'm glancing thru the book - and haven't seen anything about ARC YET ...... Maybe contact BOSE to confirm 1800 736-5076

on the ex700 models of sony tv there is audio return channel (ARC) on HDMI 1 that gets sound back to the surround without using an optical cable if you don't hav an ARC then you need the optical cable to get the sound back.
