use a circle jig on a plunge router. Start with the widest circle at a shallow depth, work inwards until you are at the diameter where you need to cut all the way through. Cut through and you are done. Don't do the cut through first, because then you have nothing to hold the jig still in the center. -
If you want to do any speaker project, a good circle jig is a must, as are the appropriate router bits.Comment

What you linked to does not include the router either. It's just the jig, and an expensive one at that.Originally posted by Empyrials
What you need to do is start with a decent plung router. You can make a jig to cut the circles but it will require some trial and error. You can also do the driver recess with a rabbiting bit after the through hole is done.Comment
