Hello Oicdn, give it a bit more time and they will continue to develop.

It seem to take a bit of time to burn in, due to the heavy construction of the cable and beefy connectors.
The L70530 series (the one tested here) is basically designed to target cables at a higher price point, but priced to target users who are looking to replace their "little black cable" painlessly.
However it is kinda a pain to shove the brand new IEC into machines, and it is done to better grip the contacts as well as allowing the contact to retain good grip after repeated use.

For anyone who got IeGO cables, do try REALLY REALLY hard to push it in, there should only be about 3mm of IEC's keyed plug left after the connector is fully inserted. If there's too much left on the outside, you ain't pushing hard enough yet. (A bit of wiggle when stuck often does wonders too.)
