Agree with all. Quickly patch in a good speaker for differential diagnosis if rattle continues after you fix the speaker (most now use fabric glue to fix a small tear.) A very polite tap with a chopstick will reveal (audio) microphonics in tubes and components, and clean controls and switches with Deoxit, or whatever, if you haven't already.
