Got tired of my amps basically sitting on the face plate so decided to get some feet to get them up and facilitate air moving through them. Got a dozen Budwig TF8T feet to do two WOPL400s and a PL2000. For each amp, mount three on the bottom plate and the fourth goes under the transformer bell replacing the origonal. The original foot makes a great needed spacer to get the amp sitting level.
I used #8-32 x 3/4 screws with washers and nylock nuts and holes drilled 1" from the three corners for the feet on the bottom plate. Used same screw but 1-1/4 length on the transformer bell due to need for added spacer. The excess length MUST be cut off to prevent contact with the windings.
Getting the old transformer foot to proper thickness is easy, small piece of 80 grit sand paper, turn the old foot as you sand it down to keep it even thickness. Kind of fiddly getting it level as all the weights on the transformer foot, but worth it. Amps look better and now they can breathe.
