A modern orchestra is defined as a large instrumental ensemble that contains sections of string, brass, woodwind, and percussion instruments.

A symphony is a specific musical form, usually played by a (fairly) specific ensemble. So, the term "symphony orchestra" is literally an ensemble capable of playing that kind of piece... thus the modern symphony orchestra. Generally, the term "symphony orchestra" is more specific, when talking about the classical ensemble.
