Did the classical masters establish the style of the present orchestra?
Yes and no. The classical composers standardised many of the elements of the modern orchestra, such as having a general string section, and two parts for flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoons, horns and trumpets. Beethoven introduced the trombone as an instrument for non-sacred works for the first time. However, the Romantic composers then added both different instruments (often percussion, or country-specific), and usually had larger orchestras (more string players, four or more horns, etc.) The basic formation was established in the Classical period though.
