Help connecting soundbar having 2rca to Sony TV having hdmi arc port

[Jatin_9]

Soundbar has 2rca port and my Sony tv has hdmi arc port, how do I connect it to listen audio in my sound bar.

They are incompatible, HDMI is digital, RCA is analog, square peg into a round hole.

Have not kept up and don't know if there is a HDMI to RCA converter, but I know they have Toslink to RCA converters.

You can use one of these to extract the audio from the HDMI ARC input.

If your TV has an optical audio output then you can use one of these

If your TV has a headphone jack then you can use that with a 3.5mm stereo plug to 2 RCA plug cable.
