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?

The aftermarket retaining clips ARE available- I have one on my 3910 for all the reasons cited above. I can't remember where I got it, but I would imagine someplace like Markertek (sp?).
Markertek was wrong but if you google iec connector retaining clip, the first hit you get IS (drum roll, pls)....

, which takes you right there. Its not always easy to get them installed if you hae big fingers, but there it is.
for some reason that link does not take you to the right page in the catalog, but its a Heyco #0915 IEC Safety retainer clip.
It does pivot, Don_s, but it is designed to work with standard IEC ends. Sorry, I did not read your post carefully enough. When I google Marinco retainer clip, I get nothing of interest. Maybe contact Marinco? Or try PartsConnexion?
