They're fine unless he cranked the amplifier way up.
The speakers can handle 100 watts maximum, and the amplifier can put out anywhere from 0 watts (no volume) up to 800 watts max.
You can run 5 watt speakers on the amp, as long as you barely turn it up, so that it doesn't exceed 5 watts. If you exceed a speaker's maximum capability, you'd know it, because the speaker will start distorting and farting, and eventually cook.
