Thanks, Joe. I called Sony technical support today, and they recommended the same thing. They also told me that there is a setting to turn off the internal speakers, but there isn't. I can turn them down so they are not audible, which is what I do when I listen to regular cable broadcasts, using the volume up/down on the cable box, with the output going into my C34V.
I took a ride to Micro Center a little while ago, hoping to leave with a digital-to-analog converter. They didn't have any, but a salesman said that none was necessary - that as far as he knew, I should be able to take the audio out from the RCA audio outputs on the back of the Sony.
When I tried this, I was unsurprised to find that it didn't work. Then, I became inspired to try the 3.5mm headphone output on the side of the Sony, figuring that this would disable the internal speakers, and give me a clean audio signal to feed to my C34V.
Voila! It couldn't work better. The internal Sony speakers are shorted when the 3.5mm/RCA output is engaged; I set the gain with the McIntosh; and control the volume with the Sony remote. The sound quality through my Tannoy 15" Memories, crossing over via my Pioneer SF850 electronic crossover at 8kHz/6dB to big Heil AMTs, is heart stopping.
