What do they mean by the connectors being 5-Way? "Gold-plated 5-way binding post inputs"

Also I'm thinking of getting the audioquest Type II cables. Will those type of C-clamps fit???

    5-way binding posts are the speaker connects.. but i'm sure you already knew that part. you are suppose to be able to hook up wire/connectors 5 different ways. 1. bare wire, 2, banana plugs, 3. spades, 4. lugs and i can't remember the last one. If you use banana plugs.. you have to remove the plastic black "cap" that covers the binding posts.. if your speakers are new, and they haven't been removed. I had trouble removing mine and had to resort to drastic measures. :lol:
    I use dual banana plugs on the back of my 800i's. works nice

    You forgot the 5th... awh comon, and i though you knew... :lol:
    just kidding, I noticed the caps, but i thought that was the design. You have a really nice setup....Im trying to get my hands on a pair of the F/X300s my self. Marantz RC2000mkII remote is the best.. I just had to get that...

    What kind of Speaker wire you got running your 800i's? I still have my old ones Monster Navaho XP. I think i need to upgrade...

    Thanks for the explanation....
