The AudioQuest Vodka eARC Priority is an Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 cable designed especially for systems where the television's eARC or ARC connection plays a central role in audio playback. Typical applications include connecting a TV via HDMI eARC to a premium soundbar or AV receiver.
AudioQuest combines 48Gbps bandwidth with a construction that gives special attention to the audio signal returned through the Audio Return Channel. Explore all HDMI cables at Hi-Stands or discover more products from AudioQuest.
Vodka eARC Priority offers a maximum bandwidth of 48Gbps and is certified as an Ultra High Speed HDMI cable. It is therefore designed for the high data rates used by modern HDMI 2.1 applications.
The available bandwidth supports applications including 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz, provided the source and connected TV, projector, monitor or AV receiver also support these functions. AudioQuest additionally specifies video resolutions up to 10K for suitable applications.
A key feature of Vodka eARC Priority is its eARC signal-path construction. AudioQuest uses 10% silver eARC conductors together with 5% silver Ground-Reference conductors.
The main A/V conductors use solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) with 0.5% silver plating. This approach focuses a significant part of the premium conductor material on the eARC audio path, making the cable particularly attractive in systems where the television returns audio to a soundbar or AV receiver.
HDMI signals operate at very high frequencies and can be affected by radio-frequency noise. Vodka eARC Priority therefore incorporates AudioQuest Level-3 Noise-Dissipation.
A Carbon Mesh-Network around the relevant A/V and eARC conductors is designed to improve RF-noise dissipation and help maintain controlled high-frequency signal transmission.
Vodka eARC Priority is especially useful in systems where the TV acts as the central hub and sends audio from integrated streaming services or connected sources back to the audio system via eARC.
The video and audio features available in practice always depend on the capabilities of every connected HDMI component.
Vodka eARC Priority is primarily intended for systems where performance of the eARC audio path has priority. This allows AudioQuest to concentrate premium materials on the Audio Return Channel.
For a TV-to-soundbar or TV-to-AV-receiver eARC connection, Vodka eARC Priority is therefore a particularly attractive option. For a premium Vodka construction across the complete audio/video signal path, also consider the AudioQuest Vodka 48 HDMI cable.
