RCA connectors-how to tighten them up.


I searched google, but got no answers, so, here goes....
Has anyone found a way to get a female RCA plug to make a tighter connection?
Someone sold me something with said plugs, but they are unusually loose fitting compared to my other connectors. I tried compressing the inner flaps, but they still seem loose.

I woke up in the middle of the night and an idea just popped into my head. I took a strip of ALUMINUM DUCT TAPE (used for A/C ducts) and I wound it two times around the outside of the RCA connector jack. Lo and behold the RCA plug is snugly fit and it really works.

REMEMBER: The duct tape must be the shiny aluminum (which is conductive) and not the gray standard one.
