Connecting amp to speakers

Hello,

I found an unbelievable bargain - KEF iQ5 speakers + Pioneer Elite SX-A9-J amp for about the same amount that I sold my Audioengine 5 for! I'm awaiting their delivery, but have never used such equipment before. I'd like to know how I should connect them. I'm thinking of buying the Belden 5000UE cable. Is this a good choice? Also, how should the cable be terminated? I have attached photos of the terminals of both the amp and the speakers.

I realize there are many reasons why this might happen, from manufacturer reluctance [to submit review samples] to bad timing in the marketplace, but we all know there are a real winners out there that never made a recommended list."

Hi

Im still in search of that last missing peice of the puzzle for my new system.

Ive now settled on

Rega 3 with DV20 High output (to be upgraded shortly )

Quad CDP2/pre 99/909 power amp
Quad 22 speakers, quad L sub

The problem im having is that I love the mids and treble of teh Quads, it really makes the music jump out for me, guitars etc just seem to sound great, the issue is that the bass is to wooly and uncontrolled, theres enough of it but its just flabby with no snap.
