Those Sansui SR-838 replacement feet. Finally did it.

A couple more pics showing of the SR-838 foot replacement. Although the old feet were working fine, you can see they were a kluge of stacked washers fitted to the springs with electrical tape. This was my work from a few months ago to revise the previous owner's significantly more cluster-f'd assembly. The new MNPCTECH feet screw right in no issues.

I had a set of the mnpctech feet on a SL-1300 and they worked out very nicely. After 45 years the originals were quite played. You should not be disappointed.
 
I'm glad I saw this thread, I was also waiting for mptech to restock the SR-838 feet. Just received them. I had a weird install, not the fault of the mptech feet, one of them was going in crooked as a result of the factory hole. Strange that a factory hole would be cattywampus. I carefully drilled a straight hole in the same location and it went on well with some diligent screwing.
I had also previously purchased the SR-929 feet and all was nice with that install. I chose Black for both, here's some pics, 838 then 929.

They look particularly good on the 929. I need one of those . . .
