Certified Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 Cable
ARC and eARC rely on the HEAC (HDMI Ethernet and Audio Return Channel) pins to transmit low-latency audio signals and CEC control data. Standard or older HDMI cables often suffer from insufficient shielding or impedance mismatches that cause the handshake between the TV and soundbar to fail. A certified cable ensures the differential pair signals meet the timing requirements for the eARC protocol.

Main Logic Board
The Main PCB houses the HDMI Receiver/Transmitter IC which manages EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) exchanges. If the ARC/CEC handshake fails despite a high-quality cable, the HDMI controller's dedicated ARC logic circuit has likely suffered an electromechanical failure or IC degradation. Replacing the full assembly restores the hardware-level communication protocol between the bar and the television.

Wi-Fi Interface Module
This soundbar requires firmware-level synchronization for stable eARC performance. If the Wi-Fi module is failing, the device cannot pull mandatory 'Life's Good' software patches that address HDMI compatibility bugs with newer TV brands. Restoring network connectivity allows the system to update its CEC database, resolving software-induced communication blocks.
