Anything goes when making an instrument amplifier, an offset magnet gap, razor blade slits in the cone etc anything goes if it sounds right.

Nothing goes making an accurate reproducer, the goal is to reproduce the signal as is and so, like room effects any alterations added are not part of the recording are more like "noise" so far as voice / detail articulation.

Hifi speakers should re-produce a recording of a guitar correctly but wouldn't be expected to replace the guitar loudspeaker (unless the player was using a guitar processor which produces the finished sound).

In that case, the typical small hifi speaker's tweeter probably will get damaged as the instrument amplifier is called on to produce sustained signals where even compressed recorded music has a crest factor (the ratio of the largest peaks to the average level) of 10 dB or more.
