I thought about doing that too... maybe tonight

I have this unproven theory (specuation really) that treble and upper mids (frequencies with quick attack/decay transients) project from the center of the driver. While bass and "slower" frequencies tend to resonate more from the perimiter. I have no way of proving this theory though. If thats the case you could tune the driver ouput depending on where you knocked the additional holes.
