I was going to route slots, too, but decided against it for two reasons:
1) Cabinet was already assembled, and the only router I have access to is too large to use in place and
2) I didn't want dust all over my living room.

Ended up drilling holes for the speakers and I'm reasonably pleased with the results.

It looks neater than it really is, but I just used a pattern and drilled carefully :)

About 2 hours for both, plus maybe 1 hour to paint all the ()@*$ holes.

Sorry for resurrecting an old topic, but was wondering how
well the sound comes through when you try something like
this... cutting the speaker holes is one of the last things I've got
to do and am debating doing this or finding some way to
cut rectangular holes and cover.

Thanks,
