Re: Express Feet
Yes I know... 
It sounds silly but it really help. I couldn't find any suitable feet here in Europe so I bought tinny JTM grey feet from Metro amp. As I was tweaking the amp to tame noise I try those Audioquest I had laying around.
When I hit a power cord at loud volume the amp cab is barely vibrating, not the case at all with the others feet, also the oscillation/noise seems less of a problem. To me it's not different from a tube ring cap or cork fitted between chassis and cab.

Re: Express Feet
Check these out:

The original Express I saw had these bumpers/feet on it. Made by Budwig.
Model F8B. I ordered some from Mouser a while back and they looked right and sounded great!
Hope that helps.
