Vinyl Stereo setup: Paradigm Mini Montor v2. old speakers ?


I am setting up  a small Turntable system for a friend, 
Onkyo Receiver
Technics TT

I have a pair of 25 year old Paradigm Mini Monitor v2, been in closet for 20 years.. 
perfect condition.

Question:
Has the technology changed such that a  small mid-priced bookshelf speaker will blow these of of the water?

She is musician, and listens to lots of acoustic symphonic genre.

Thanks

Given she’s using an Onkyo receiver your speakers will likely be fine.  But yes, speakers have come a long way in 25 years so if/when she wants to upgrade she should upgrade to a better stereo integrated amp, a separate phono preamp, and better speakers and she’ll be at a whole other level of enjoyment and involvement.  But this system should be fine to get her up and running and enjoying vinyl and she can just go from there if she wants, or maybe not.
