Sorry, can you tell me what is the difference? Also my receiver has (i don't know what they are called but) twisting kind of speaker inputs. It is basically a cylinder and you twist it out, then stick the wire in and then twist it closed. Is there a specific kind of plug I should use on the end of my wire to connect with these? Banana/pin plugs don't seem like they would fit well. Thanks
Bare wire would fit the best.

Thanks for the help everyone, I got my wire yesterday. Unfortunately I ran out after about 3 sattelites being wired. I ordered another 50 foot spool of the King Wire as well as banana plugs since it's a real pain to get the wire to fit in my receiver plugs. Thanks again
