Don't know which speakers to buy

I'm curious about one thing. The back of my speakers have a low fi and high fi connection, which one should I use considering these bookshelfs are the only speakers I'm using?

The speakers have two pairs of binding posts for bi-wiring / passive bi-amping. If you're not planning on doing those things, the speakers also have a couple knobs which act as jumpers to connect the two sets of posts; make sure these are tightened all the way. From there, it doesn't matter which connection you choose.

So if I'm just using them for a 2 speaker set up with a sub then it doesn't matter which I connect it through?

So I went to the store last night to look around and I found some pretty good deals so I bought a few items. I got the Q100 speakers for $400, the Q400 sub for $500 and a Yamaha RXV577 receiver for $400. I looked around online and the prices looked good so I went for it, keep in mind these are in CAD.
So far I love the sound, especially the sub. I compared the Q400 to a paradigm sub for a similar price but the Q400 had this amazing full bass sound that you couldn't tell was coming from a box. It feels like I'm in a theatre it sounds so amazing, and the speakers have great clarity too. I'm going to keep testing stuff today and let you guys know how it sounds.

So you got a KEF 2.1 + Yamaha AVR for $1300. And you love the sound. So everything is all good. Congrats and enjoy!

Correct, just make sure the jumper knobs are tightened down.

Yeah, it sounds amazing, I love it. I may look into getting a centre speaker at some point but probably not for a while.
