Good Day to all!

What is the best way to connect my Penta 2 to a non-B&O receiver that has RCA pre-amp outputs?

 I currently am using simple RCA-RCA and it sound fine, but nothing shows on the Penta display.  Is there a cable that accepts an RCA input and a Powerlink output so that at least volume displays?  Thank you

Unfortunately, the display signal comes from the audio device so a non B&O amplifier will not be able to produce a display.
