Short answer: 2 x 0.75 mm² are sufficient for short speaker cables in many cases, but 1.0-1.5 mm² are recommended for better transmission quality and lower power loss with this system.
Explanation and details:
- The system delivers 2 x 60 W RMS; thinner cables (0.75 mm²) work, but lead to slightly more voltage drop and power loss at longer distances or higher volumes, which can be audible.
- Panasonic supplies AWG22 loudspeaker cables as standard (approx. 0.33 mm² per core wire fibre, in practice this corresponds to an effective cross-section of approx. 0.5-0.75 mm²), which shows that the device can also be operated with rather thin cables.
- Recommendation based on practical experience reports and tests: For cable lengths up to approx. 3-5 m, 0.75-1.0 mm² is sufficient; for lengths over ~5 m or if you want maximum volume/signal quality, choose 1.5 mm².
- If you want to use banana plugs or screw terminals: the device accepts both, and thicker cables (1.0-1.5 mm²) can usually be connected without any problems.
Short help to choose:
- Seat close together, cable ≤ 3-5 m → 0.75-1.0 mm² sufficient.
- Cable > 5 m or desire for the best possible sound at high levels → 1.5 mm².
- Ensure a clean contact (stripped/not frayed) or use suitable banana/fork terminals for a secure connection.
The cables are screwed to the devices using universal clamps. You can therefore cut the loudspeaker cable to your desired length yourself from a 10 metre roll, for example.

No, the Panasonic SC-PMX802E stereo system is not equipped with a function that allows you to operate a record player directly. However, the system supports various other sources such as CD player, WLAN, AirPlay, DAB+, FM, Internet radio and Bluetooth, but no direct connection option for a record player.
The Panasonic SC-PMX802E, identified by the product code 'SC-PMX802E-K', is a stereo system that was already available on the market and is not a brand new product that was recently launched. This model has been available for a few years and offers features such as a CD player, WiFi connectivity, support for Apple AirPlay 2 and 2x 60 W power.
This is an offer from one of our marketplace dealers, over whose pricing we unfortunately have no influence. However, thank you for reporting this and we will keep an eye on it.
Good morning,
Yes, that's possible. By the way, it's also in the technical data sheet:
Antenna connection 75 ohm (unregulated)
By the way, the sound is great. Have fun with it.
Unfortunately, this is not possible directly via Airplay. One possibility is to use a Sonos Connect, which transmits the audio signal wirelessly to the Sonos system. This way, you can integrate the Panasonic SC-PMX802E into your Sonos network and play music via AirPlay.
