Hansen The Prince V2 - Question

I’m hoping someone can help me. I just purchased a pair of Hansen The Prince V2 that should be delivered in a week or so. I wanted to get Herbies feet to replace the spikes before the speakers got here but I have no idea the size of the threads. I reached out to Hansen Audio (via e-mail because they appear to have no phone) but got no response. I’m guessing M8 or M10 but that’s just an educated guess. Of course I can wait until the speakers arrive but they’re such a ***** to setup (each in excess of 200lbs) that I hoped to have to do this just the one time.
Thanks.

Speakers are about 5 years old but look brand new.
If Hansen is out of business it would be very, very recent because their website appears updated and has a 2018 date.
I will be able to determine thread size once the speaker arrives.  I was trying to get footers before they got here so I'd only have to move them around the one time.  They way 200+ lbs a piece.

You could also try different screws from the hardware store and thereby determine the thread size.

OP,
Are the speakers that you bought new, because I thought for some reason that Hansen has been out of business for a few years.

I did, yesterday.  That # is out of service.  When I looked them up in the online phone book there was no listing.  They don't respond to e-mails either.
I get the speakers next week.  I hope the sound quality is a lot better than their customer service.  Very disappointing.

I could do that but there really are more than 2 possibilities. I am ASSUMING it’s a metric size because Hansen is a Canadian company. Further assuming it’s M8 or M10 because it’s a 200lb speaker. I’ll see what Herbie thinks.
The footers are not cheap and I'd prefer being pretty sure, if not 100% certain before ordering.

Order both sizes and return the one that does not fit
