Loose fitting power cord.


The power cord (Morrow) to my amp (Benchmark AHB2) is loose fitting.  It keeps falling out with the slightest movement.
Two questions.
Will that affect the ultimate SQ?
Is there any way to fix the problem short of getting a new cord?

Try plumbers Teflon tape. Easy to remove.

Try bending the male prongs gently outward on the amp with a pliers. This will increase tension on the connection with the female connector on the lead.

You could also use an IEC C13 to C14 adapter...

The electrical tape might work, but sounds to me like a perfect excuse to put on the dark, dark goggles and pull out the welding equipment.
