How's it going, Mike? Some of these replies...the things people come up with??? Lets try something simple....I'm assuming you are in the US, so this tewak if for US only, but can be easily modified for UK and Europe. Pick yourself up some thick thread at the local arts and craft store. At the outlet, loosen the center outlet cover screw a little (no need to pull it out). Wrap the thread a few times around the ac cable near the rear of the ac plug connector. Now wrap the tread around the outlet cover screw a couple times and tighten down the screw...this should offer the support you need at the wall. The same can bo done at the iec end...just loosen the iec socket screws on both sides so you can wrap the thread.

Great idea! Much better than using elc.tape around the IEC end to make things tighter.
Great advice, Alan. Does it need to be a thick thread? Nylon or Cotton? I see a whole shelf of thread at Jo-Ann fabric stores....and I just was there last week looking for burlap for my acoustic panels....:)
I'll try it and report back. By the way, i'm in the US, VA
thanks.
Well how bout that. Didn't think about applying same procedure on iec sockets. I used fishing line to secure the PCs to the back of my speakers. Worked like a charm. Thanks for the idea.
