This is really an interesting way to use the sim for a real-life applications

This is a nice demonstration. It could be simplified by removing the 3 "speaker cone" walls. The "plug" will still perform the same function.
You can also use a plug in the water and light tabs.

From Steve Pollock: "a neat use of the "adding a wall" feature of the sim, which I had never noticed before!"
