An audio extender is a device that allows you to extend the distance between an audio source, such as a computer or a home theater receiver, and an audio output device, such as speakers or headphones. Audio extenders can be used to connect audio devices in different rooms, or to connect devices that are too far apart to be connected with a standard audio cable.

There are a few different types of audio extenders, including:

Analog audio extenders: These devices use analog signals to extend the distance between audio devices. They typically include a transmitter and a receiver, which are connected to the audio source and audio output device, respectively.

Digital audio extenders: These devices use digital signals to extend the distance between audio devices. They typically include a transmitter and a receiver, which are connected to the audio source and audio output device, respectively. They may use various protocol like SPDIF, Toslink or HDMI audio return channel (ARC)

Wireless audio extenders: These devices use wireless technology to extend the distance between audio devices. They typically include a wireless transmitter and a wireless receiver, which are connected to the audio source and audio output device, respectively.

USB audio extenders: They are used to extend the USB audio device away from the computer.

It's important to check the compatibility, audio format and resolution supported by these devices with the audio source and output before buying
