Use the following process experiment with the port plug, as well as the
method to safely install the plug.
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.
Section 2�8—Resistors
By removing the aluminum back cover on the rear of TuneTot, you gain
access to the resistors. The back cover is secured by Allen bolts. Use the supplied
nectors. Attach the main output from the amplifier to the binding posts located
on the bottom rear of the TuneTot. Use your fingers to tighten the binding posts.
Do not overtighten.
Section 2�7—Port Plug
Unlike Wilson’s floorstanding loudspeakers, which are typically installed in
a relatively predictable environment with some distance from the room’s bound-
aries, TuneTot was designed to be installed into more acoustically hostile areas,
such as desktops, bookshelves, and counter tops.
TuneTot features an acoustically tune rear vented. Wilson engineers de-
termined that this configuration offers the best combination of low port noise
and optimized port contribution in the low frequency portion of the spectrum
of TuneTot. Occasionally, the combination of TuneTot’s proximity to a shelf or
counter top and a rear wall can reinforce this port energy and cause undesirable
reinforcement and nonlinearities in this portion of the bandwidth.
Wilson’s engineers have provided a solution for these types of installations.
TuneTot is shipped with two port plugs. These are located in TuneTot’s toolbox.
If the bass sounds integrated with the rest of the tonal spectrum, features
dynamic authority and transient speed in the midbass, there is little need to ex-
periment with the port plug. However, if the bass sounds bloated, “woolly” or
slow, these are symptoms of an excess of boundary reinforcement.
