5.  Pick a musical track that has bass extension and dynamics. If 

possible, choose a thirty second (or so) section of the track, 
and repeat that section using the A/B repeat feature of your CD 
player. Listen to several repetitions without the plug installed.

Note: Wilson has a bass setup CD with the appropriate musical tracks opti-
mized for this purpose. This CD is available on Wilson’s on-line store.

6.  The plug is formed to fit snugly in the port. With the flat-sur-

faced end out, gently push the port plug into the vent, making 
sure the flat flange of the plug rests tightly against the exter-
nal edges of the vent.

7.  Restart the musical selection. Listen for improved bass inte-

gration, speed, and articulation. If the bass is more musically 
satisfying, this is the preferred configuration.

Note: This process benefits from repeated listening. Repeat the steps to 
ensure your choice of vented or un-vented yields the most musical results.
