Why not just contact ( new thor owner ) Ted @ Highendaudio.com and just have him either send you a replacment or send it in and have it repaired???
Help Thor preamp IEC replacement required,
I ran into a bit of a thing the other day while reconfiguring my array. I had left a window open in the equipment room and briefly set the TA 1000 MK II power supply onto the floor nearby the window.
My window fan was on & windows open. A strong breeze blew the fan into the room and a corner of it fell onto the power cable going into the IEC inlet of the power sup breaking the exterior plastic housing of the IEC connector, thus loosening the fit and making using it a very precarious thing.
I’ve not seen an IEC inlet quite like this one as two small screws affix it flush, to the surface of round power sup housing.
Any ideas on opening the little round box and where or who makes such a 15A IEC male connector/inlet would be immensely appreciated.
Additionally, if some upscale replacement could be substituted I’d certainly go that way. The look of the inlet is just like any other 15A IEC, save for the two tiny screws to either side of the lip of it that fasten into the housing.
Thanks, your help is always well received.
