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

I am asking how to get analog out from a new Sony HDTV into the RCA inputs on my preamp.

Can I just use the headphone mini jack output on the new TV (with a simple mini jack cable to two RCA plugs} into my preamp?

Will this give good sound quality?

I do not want to go the D to A into my preamp (route) if possible.

One more time.

My $8k stereo is a ARC SP-9 MKIII, Son of Ampzilla 2000 amp and Magnepan MGIIIa speakers (no digital anything).

Can I run a 1/8" mini plug cable with two RCA plugs from the headphone out on the new TV, into my preamp, and get good sound quality?

I do not want do deal with HDMI, or a DAC.

Kr4--- What is an Audio Return Channel?

Why did new TVs drop the analog audio RCA output jacks?

Is the earphone 1/8" audio mini jack output jack the same as the old audio RCA output jacks?

Is there an output impedance difference between the new TV earphone output, and the old TV RCA output jack, which could be a problem with a preamp?

The audio must come from the TV, because I also use an apple TV, cable box, and Sony blu-ray player.

The audio input must be fixed output, as I use the volume control on the preamp.

Right now I have a 40'Sony Bravia Led HDTV that has RCA audio output, and the audio sounds great. I sit 6 ft away.

I wanted to go with a new 50"+ ultra high def Sony TV, but have now changed my mind.

I do not want 3D or built in internet. I get all channels I need from the apple TV and the blu-ray player.

I also have very basic cable TV.

I guess there is no real reason to change.

Unless you sit very close (4 ft) from the the TV, I see no need for ultra high def TV over a blu-ray disc. A big selection of 4K video is not here yet.
