I suspect that you wouldn't notice a significant upgrade in sound. I'd upgrade your amp to a better one.
Edit:
If you are looking for better, louder, cleaner sound, and are looking to spend about $150 to do it (price of the Edifiers), then consider replacing your class D mini-amp with this Pioneer stereo receiver.
Its class A/B amplification, and will provide a lot more clean power for your speakers.It also makes future upgrades easier, as it has a sub out on the rear.Oh, and most important for you, it has bluetooth.
EDIT
I cannot confirm that it is class A/B. It might be Class D. This isn't the worst thing in the world... it might still be better than than miniamps... but it might not be, too. It does give you a few more connectivity options and does have bluetooth, but it might not be the best bang for the buck.
If it is class D, hopefully it's a better class D amp. It should be better than the Kintner, I'd think, though.

Amazon warehouse's "Used - Like New" deals are perfect. I've bought a couple like that from Amazon... no issues, perfect condition. Prime one day shipping, backed by their same return policy.

I was planning on using an active subwoofer with it, yes. I was also thinking that having the extra channels would be good in case I wanted to add surround speakers in the future. The garage is HUGE and I really like my music loud and with a punch.
I ended up getting this pioneer instead.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075SY52NL?pf_rd_p=183f5289-9dc0-416f-942e-e8f213ef368b&pf_rd_r=YS1884CJJSDNH26RF5Q9
Maybe you two can educate me as to WHY you feel it wouldnt "turn out too good" instead of being condescending?
What’s your budget? This might be overkill for your needs but it’s $150 and will have plenty of power for those Klipsch books.

You need a receiver, e.g.

If you want a modern 2 channel receiver with all the new bells & whistles -
You'll see the biggest jump just getting a decent amp/receiver and speakers. The turntable isn't great but if you're going straight from the turntable into powered speakers, I'd almost guarantee powered speakers will be the weak-point.

Keep in mind that receiver only does audio, not video, which could be a consideration for later upgrades.
Your best bet is to get a cheap turn table and a receiver with bluetooth capabilities. Like this one here. If you search your thrift stores or craigslist I'm sure you can make it happen for less than 250
