I don't know the full capability of the e-ARC function except as it relates to it's transmission of the audio signal to a sound bar.The DAC is a small and simple device that converts a digital audio input via S/PDIF optical TOSLINK or coaxial RCA connection to 2-channel analog stereo RCA L/R audio. and then there are HDCP versions to manage, get ARC and CEC right, get EDID right, provide switching between a HDMI and a TOSLINK, a remote, volume control, etc. I currently use my TV to switch between Chromecast and BluRay; I would continue to do that if I get a stereo receiver. Blustream is an official adopter and alliance member of HDBaseT, positioning the company at the forefront of this advanced technology.
The DAC performance, combined with a quality, multi-channel analog input/output preamp, rivals or exceeds what you get out of many modern pre/pros, receivers or BD players via their HDMI DAC sections.
