EBC 3GD Sport Rotors but which pads?

I purchased a set ff/rr of EBC 3GD rotors for my 06 TL (Auto). I also bought some A-spec upgraded pads from Acura. After doing more research I'm a little confused as to what is the best pad for this type of rotor. The A-spec pads are not ceramic but I see many members using ceramic pads vice semi-metallic like the Acura pads. I don't want to destroy the rotor; there is nothing stating which type pad to use and my lack of experience is not helping. Will I be alright with this set up or should I invest in some ceramic pads?

If you go to the EBC website they show you exactly which rotors go with which pads. http://www.ebcbrakes.com/auto-pads.html

Faster street use on muscle cars . Redstuff (pads) GD Series (rotor)

I use this exact set up on my 04 5AT and love it.
