Hey,

you could fit some mesh inside the holes so the cloth lays on it and then it wont sag into the holes from the speakers

I made my own, and I'm a creative retard.

Just roughly draw round your current shelf, and sand it down till it fits nicely.

Cut holes for speakers, and then spray the whole service with spray glue - leave it a couple of minutes, then tightly stretch over the material, stapling and glueing it all down.

Attach speakers to the underside, then route the cables tidly.
