303 RCA outputs > Focusrite 1/4inch inputs via RCA to 1/4 inch adapters.

Yup, on Focusrite Safire Pro 14 and do the same thing, works like a champ. RCA to 1/4 can be had at most music stores or even stores like best buy, but not the best quality there.

Ok but in my focusrite i have only xlr inputs.
so, should i buy 2 RCA to 2 xlr cable or 2 RCA to 1 xlr?

You will need 2 RCA to 2 xlr cables. If you don't use both of the XLR inputs, you will only have a mono signal. Might not matter too much if you don't use stereo samples.

Most (all?) of the Focusrite sound cards have those combo XLR inputs where you can use 1/4 line or XLR mic.

You are right, inputs are combo.
Witch option gives better quality of sound?xlr or 1/4 connection?
