McIntosh MC225 RCA Input Jacks Problem

Hey there fellow inmates

My heavier RCA interconnects (Audio Sensibility) are causing problems with the RCA input jacks on my MC225 amp. Specifically, they tend to cut the sound in and out. Jiggle the cables a bit and all is good, repeat and rinse.

I should clarify, the cables are fine, I'm guessing it's the stress on the input jacks themselves. Happens fairly regularly with them on my C22. Unfortunately my repair guy is retired now.

Is this an easy soldering fix, any tips if even easier than that?

If not, anybody have a tip on where to get this fixed in the Maine area?

Thanks in advance!
