If it does not sound good enough, then go from there.
There are always ways to make things sound better when needed.
I remember the vintage Kenwoods well. Very nice for the day! However most receivers are not capable of getting the best sound quality possible out of many modern design speakers, which these days tend to go for extended bass in a smaller package, and are harder to drive optimally, which could make a receiver like that the bottleneck.
The advertised frequency response for those little guys to 46 hz along with associated low 85 db sensitivity, plus 4ohm nominal impedance tells me the Kenwood may do Ok but you could probably do much better with a modern high quality higher power amp with greater current delivery capabilty.
