Right Angle Adapters


Okay, I just got my AQ Thunder Power cords today. Though they perform admirably, even at initial install, I am a bit unnerved by just how stiff and unyielding they are. I contacted AQ to ask about using a right angle adapter and was told by a gentleman with a British accent, that sound degradation would be minimal if I used one with continuous metal (ie. no cords).
Can anyone here recommend a good brand. 
I see Voodoo cable offers some, but at near $100, I think there must be some less expensive options.

gdnrbob, the Audioquest is offered as a (straight) 90 degree only. Voodoo offers that plus one that changes the cord direction from straight to a right angle, as well as one that offers adjustable angles. All but the last are priced at $75, are really well made, and cryogenically treated (if that matters to you).

The problem I had with both the Audioquest and the Voodoo adaptors is that due to the stiffness and weight of beefy power cords, if the fit of the adaptor into the socket on the component it is used with is not sufficiently tight, the cord can cause the adaptor to pop out of the socket, obviously undesirable!
