adk highlander Sith Lord Apr 25, 2016 #2 A model number of the Panasonic will help so we can see the various connections it may have. Either way the Focusrite 40 has TRS output connections so you will need an adaptor to convert to RCA. What are you trying to do?

P PortamentoRA Audiophyte Apr 25, 2016 #3 Oh yeah, I overlooked that.. It is a Panasonic SA-HT05 to a Focusrite Pro40.
adk highlander Sith Lord Apr 25, 2016 #4 I am not into pro audio so and do not have time to download the manual for the Focusrite but in order to output it into the Panasonic you will need TRS to RCA cable or converters like this http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-Cable-GPR101-Inch-Adaptor/dp/B000068O3S/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1461611257&sr=8-2&keywords=1/4+trs+to+rca+cable

rojo Audioholic Samurai Apr 25, 2016 #5 There could be impedance matching issues if the TRS connections are balanced. The Panasonic inputs are unbalanced. Generally, plugging an unbalanced source into a balanced amp requires electronic conversion / boosting I think. Would plugging a balanced source into an unbalanced receiver require attenuation? It's probably important to find that out before running out and buying adapters. You probably need this or something similar, although there's probably a better solution somewhere for passing more channels than just stereo. I hope someone a little more confident can confirm this.

BoredSysAdmin Audioholic Slumlord Apr 25, 2016 #6 Focusrite 40 will accept both unbalanced and balanced inputs/outputs - just make sure to get right cable, No need for signal conversion. Souce: https://us.focusrite.com/sites/default/files/focusrite/downloads/7046/userguidepro40english04_0.pdf
