Will a Wattgate 20A IEC female end fit AR VS115?

I found to my chagrin, that a Furutech 20A IEC plug on an aftermarket power cord will not seat all the way on my AR VS115 amp because the fuse holder protrudes right above the amps power receptacle. The main body of the Furutech butts up against the protruding fuse holder before the plug can seat fully. The Wattgate has a low shoulder between body and plug, which may be just enough to allow full seating. If anyone is using a Wattgate with success on a VS115, please let me know. I plan to just rewire the cord.

After looking at the 20A wattgate I'm using with my Ref 3 and the pic linked above, I'm not sure there is enough clearance. Check out the wattage's specs at

The outside diameter on my 20A extends approximately .3 inches above the width of the insertive part.
