know anybody that smokes?
put the mask on, have 'em blow smoke at you, and look for where air's blowing the smoke away where it shouldn't.
you could block the exhaust holes with your finger to look for any other leaks

FWIW, I found my old Hybrid a while back and tested it using the Mask Fit feature of my S9...I could not get a Happy Face without covering one of the vent ports. To be fair, I didn't spend much time with it as the mask is uncomfortable to me.
I have used the Innomed Hybrid for years and the last 16 months with ResMed AutoSet S9 with pressure range 10 - 20. I have always had widely varying pressure needs and the Innomed and ResMed machine perform flawlessly for me.
But I have never used the Mask Fit feature.
Sheffey, out of curiosity, what does your leak line look like with the S9/Hybrid? Can you estimate the base leak rate, the average minimum leak reported?
