Holo Audio May / please help


I have a set of RevOpod footers that I would like to move to my Holo Audo May DAC.  The footers are said to work best when the OEM footers are removed and replaced  with the RevOpods, screwed directly into the the bottom if the DAC chassis. 

I began the footer swap process, taking out the screw in the bottom of the OEM Holo footer but the old footers were still stuck fast even after removing the screw in the bottom of the footer.  Strange.

My question is:  Has anyone has experience with this? Are the OEM footers glued/adhered to the bottom of the chassis or perhaps are the footers secondarily screwed fast from the inside of the chassis making them unremovable from the outside?

Thanks in advance,

Rick

Picked up an oak branch in the yard, and turned some footers for ventilation. This was done on my old lathe, now have a Laguna REVO 18/36. I drilled some recesses into the top with a Fostner bit, so the OEM feet were left in place.

How does it sound now? "The raisers imbue the soundscape a novel majestic grandeur. The highs soar to new climaxes, the mids have a fullness of oak barrel aged whiskey, while the lows reach deep into the earth for grounding. Jitter is further reduced by the organic resilience of the open grain of the California oak." — LOL! 🤣 Nope, sounds exactly the same. Maybe I had a bit too much rosé. Notice the wine stopper with a piece of vinyl LP. Vinyl art. No worries, only an unplayably warped LP was upcycled.

P.S. Tried to insert some pictures, but does not work when posted. Hmmm. Anyway, the feet may be visible on my system images. Also in an insta post:
