I have recently purchased a cabinet for my 2325 and I need longer screws for the feet to fit onto the cabinet bottom. Does anyone know the screw size? I went to home depot with the old screw and M4 seems to work well in their measuring nut but it appears the screw pitch is off. I also need the length of screw . Thanks in advance

I just put feet on a 1250 and they were 4mm.

It depends on the thickness of your case. I posted a thread about this after experimenting with several lengths. In my case, 25mm would not engage in the back feet. I had to use 30 mm with a few #8 flat washers. M4 is definitely the correct diameter.

FWIW, 99% of the screws in electronics are 3mm or 4mm

someone is working on mostly non-American made gear. But that makes sense. The US stuff is too old or too expensive back then to be as ubiquitous as the many foreign units.

Yeah, I should have qualified that.
The OLD US stuff is SAE.
I scrap tons of crap gear and 99% is newer and foreign born.
Some of the whacky high end US stuff is like 50/50 metric and SAE.
I have many many pounds of screws.
I tend to toss large coffee cans full when I clean out.
I only save them to keep them from getting loose all of the damn place.
THEY never disappear. They end up in my bare foot!
NOW, those from the gear I'm fixing escape and go through the black hole under my bench.
Gone forever.

Just installed new feet on my Marantz 2385. No wood case, straight into metal bottom. I used M4 - 12mm in length. Worked perfectly and not too long, preventing damage to components. I had on hand 8/32 - 1/2 inch, would not fit, fwiw.
