ac cables falling out of IEC inlets on amps

I use medium weight power cables with Marinco connectors.They sound good, but they fit in the IEC inlets on my monoblocks only loosely and can easily loose their connection. I am considering replacing the inlets on the amps with ones that solidly grip the powercord.
Any suggestions?

I now believe that the connectors and a vise-like junction is more important than the wire contained within the cord
I hve not experiemented, but that makes a lot of sense to me. Maybe I'll try a PS Audio power cord.

This problem really pisses me off. We spend all this money on power cords only to have compromised connections. What's the net effect of that?

Some manufacturer needs to step up with a serious solution to this.
