Pre Amp / Amp for Klipsch KLF-10


New to Audiogon forum and loving all the info here !  I have a great set of Klipsch KLF10 that I love want to get set up for lossless streaming, . I have an amazon link going into my Schiit Modi 3 and now need a preamp / amp set up.  The KLF10s are 8 ohm / 98 db sensitive / 150 watts cont .  
I was thinking of buying and trying out a Freya + / Aegir stereo unbalanced set up.  Thoughts? Think this is a good set up for for my speakers?

I push my Klipsch KLF10s with a Schiit Aegir and Saga + setup.  I have in my family room.  20' x 20' with 8' ceilings.  Wood floors and plaster walls.  It sounds really good at low to mid volume.  I am new to audiophile world.  I've had the KLF10s since the 90s.  I used in a home theater setup.  I had been using the Aegir to drive refurbished AR 2ax speakers.  Sensitivity is 89.  In retrospect, that wasnt a good pairing.  The Klipsch sound much better.  I get a little of that HiFi sound stage affect.  There is a texture and clarity to the music. It sounds sweet with really good recordings.  Listening to Radiohead Kid A on a long winter day.  Sounds beautiful. My only complaint is that I cant really crank it.  The Aegir checks out after I push the Saga + past about 3/4.  It is probably loud enough for a responsible adult, but somedays.....Im not all that responsible.  Soooo......I'm thinking about spending a couple grand and getting the Freya with another Aegir, driving mono.  I'd like to try Magepans with this setup.
