Check out this video of an experiment by Ethan Winer:

I originally watched this many months ago and had forgotten about it. It's nice to view it again within the context of this thread.
I listened to the video and even with my computer speakers (Radio Shack
Minimus 7s) I heard significant differences between the mic and speaker
playback on every source except maybe for a shaker. I think that nearly
all of the measurement mic recordings could be acceptable, but that
wasn't really the point of the video - at least I didn't think so.
To my ears, there were fairly obvious differences on all but the wood blocks and shaker.
On my semi-cruddy computer speakers only the cello sounded close.
