Hello all,
I just wanted to get some advice about how I can integrate my Beosytem 7000 into my 'daily' entertainment setup. Currently all sources are routed through a non B&O av amp and all hidden in a sideboard with only the Beovox 3800 visible. My question pretty much centres around how I get the sound from various HDMI sources to the AUX IN of the Beomaster.
Current setup:

I've seen this HDMI switcer with audio out which seems like it would do the job but wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions or maybe a better way of doing it?
This is what I'm currently aiming for:
Living Room: Beosystem 4, Beolab 7-2 (Center), Beolab 9 (Fronts), Beolab 8000 (Rears), no Subwoofer. Screen: Sony KD-85XH9096Dining Room: Beosound Essence MK II with Beolab 4000 on stands, fed by Amazon Echo Show 8Home Cinema: Beosystem 4, Beolab 7-4 (Center), Beolab 1 (Fronts), Beolab 4000 (Rears). Projector: Sony VPL-HW55Home Office: Beosystem 3, Beolab 7-4, Beolab 5000, Screen: Sony KD-55XH9005 on Beovision 7-40 stand, ML to Beosound 9000 MK3 and Beosound 5/Beomaster 5 (1 TB SSD version)Bedroom: Sony KD-65XH9077, Beosound Essence MK II with Beolab 6002 and Beolab 11 (all white, wall-mounted)
In storage: Beolab 5000/Beomaster 5000 (1960s).

What you need is an HDMI Switch and Audio De-embedder.
That would give you the analog-out and a pass-through of the HDMI for your tv.
The one in your link should be fine.
Here is another one:

If your tv supports ARC (audio return channel) be sure to get one that supports ARC.
If you want to keep your current receiver, you could use a single HDMI De-embedder from the HDMI-out:

Does your current receiver have audio pre-outputs?
Or maybe a digital audio output?
