Use this guide to replace one or both speakers in your MacBook Pro 14" 2021.
For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your MacBook. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
Some photos in this guide are from a different model and may contain slight visual discrepancies, but they won't affect the guide procedure.

The description up top alludes to having to remove the logic board + fans to replace the speakers, but that doesn't seem to be the case in the step by step. Can anyone who's completed this speaker replacement clear that up?
Hi thardee, thanks for pointing that out. You're right, the logic board and fans don't need to be removed to replace the speakers. I've removed that section from the description.
