I have a very old Pioneer AV System but I just ordered a Schiit Magni and Modi last night.
Cannot comment on the Pioneer but in general stereo amps/receivers don't fare that well with high impedance cans IME. Schitt M&M is a great combo. However, for the Senns and the Beyers, a tube amp (OTL) is a better amp to use. I have tremendous results with the Schiit Vali (very very cheap but what a value), the BH Crack with Speedball, the Project Ember and the Zana Deux. I did not like the Schiit Lyr 1 and very curious about the Valhalla 2.
Schiit solid-state amps (Asgard, Magni etc) I find pair very well with the orthodynamic cans. Did you get the Modi Uber 2?
