Default struts/shocks?!?

well, im getting ready to purchase neuspeed sport springs and koni 5 way adjustables for my 95 lude. the question is this. I know my lude has struts, but what exactly are they. the definition i came across is:

Strut A suspension element in which a reinforced shock absorber is used as one of the wheel's locating members, typically by solidly bolting the wheel hub to the bottom end of the strut.

http://www.parttrackers.com/auto_glossary/s/#strut

now with that understanding i figured it would just be a stronger shock, but then reading on some of the other prelude forums just got me confused, making it sound like i need to buy struts and shocks. so can someone please clear this up for me
