hello, i have an edit room in which i am trying to take audio out of a panasonic TH-50BT300 (pro plasma monitor) into my mixing board. it only has speaker wire outputs (weird), so i have a cable that goes from speaker wire to rca then rca to 1/4". when i plug into the mixing board, the monitor forces itself off, like its shorting out. i don't know much about wiring, but i am very confused by this. anyone have any knowledge on the subject? thanks.

You cannot plug a speaker output into a mixer input.
You will blow the mixer up. Destroyed permanently!!!
A mixer ONLY has LINE LEVEL inputs!!! NOT speaker level!!!
There is a speaker to line level convertor. But it is not intended for pro quality.
