Alright, picture the following:
Your audio signal is like the one at the bottom (simplified). This is the exact pattern the physical diaphragm traces out in the air to play the music. From here, it should be clear that a lighter, more nimble diaphragm would be able to trace out the bottom waveform more precisely than a heavier, thicker diaphragm, simply due to inertia. Changing the frequency response only changes the amplitudes of the input sinusoidal tones (which will change the shape of the output wave), but at the end of the day, a lighter and more nimble diaphragm can trace out the arbitrary waveform shape better than a heavier and slower diaphragm.
... no. Any diaphragm that is capable of the whole audible frequency range will be capable of any combination of frequencies in any visually complex combination. You will e.g. notice that the bottom waveform does not change direction any more steeply than the 300Hz and is thus not any more demanding of high speed changes than the 300Hz waveform by itself.
