Audio out to RCA input on new Sony TV's?

I currently have an older Sony HDTV with RCA connectors for audio out, to RCA connectors, into my preamp (and expensive $8K stereo).

All new current Sony HDTV's now have, Audio Out : 1 (Side / Hybrid w/ HP).

Howe do I get analog audio into my preamp with the same quality?

Do I now need a D To A converter?

New TVs have 2 channel audio-out via a newer HDMI standard (1.3a? 1.4?) -I can't remember off the TOMH.
You must have an AVR with this newer standard and then feed you preamp with RCA cables from the AVR L/R outputs.
Hope this works...

It's called AudioReturnChannel = ARC.

There are devices available that can take an HDMI signal and churn out an RCA connectable signal. Give Google a try, they're usually about $25-$50....
