Need help identifying my h/k AVR-525 power cord.

Help! I stupidly mixed up all my power cords during a recent move. The one I thought went to it, has a female connector that is a three prong connection. But the 525 only has a male two prong output. Also, when attaching that cable, it doesn’t feel very secure. But, the unit does power up just fine, although I have yet to connect speakers. Should I be looking for a cable that has a female two prong connection? Or does it even matter?

Thats the one. I have the 525 also and that cord does fit loose.

So Aaron, the plug is actually a 3 prong female, but the receiver only needs a two prong connection?

Hmmm...how strange...I wonder why they did it that way?

Thanks for the feedback!
