2 prong power cable

Never paid much attention until recently but my Marantz PM11S3 has a 2 prong power cable.  Anyone know of upgraded power cables with only 2 prongs.  I'd like to replace the stock cable for one that will help with imaging and a nudge toward neutrality since the Marantz tends a teeny bit toward warmth.  Thanks.

Wait, is this using an IEC type of socket, or is it using the itty bitty oval shaped socket, about 3/4" wide and 1/4" tall?

Any Audiophile power cord will fit and work safely. The Marantz sound will respond to different power cord manufacturers.

Three prong cord will work for that IEC, just means no ground as Marantz has set it up. If you're unsure if it'll fit just grab a cord from one of your other pieces and double check.

The Marantz uses a C18 IEC without a ground. The three prong IEC is a C14 and will fit into the C18 socket. There will be no electrical issues.
