I just got a Beomaster 4000 tuner-amplifier and the speaker clips are quite unusual to me. I have never seen such a clip design on the back of the unit. How do I find the proper speaker clips?
I don't understand. You mean the DIN speaker outlets?
They are very common, not to say ubiquitous in Europe!

Welcome to Beoworld !
Those plugs/connectors are not as unusual as you may think.
The 2-pin speaker DIN connectors are the only speaker plug/socket standard (industrial norm) for home HiFi worldwideso, naturally, B&O uses these.I am amazed how many people find these plugs strange and/or think they are "proprietary" when, in fact, it'severything else that's non-standard.
The plugs come in several different qualities, both for screw-mount and for soldering.I personally like the Deltron metal type (but it requires soldering).
An Ebay search brings up many:

I too use the British-made Deltron DIN plugs. Very sturdy and not expensive!
If you live in The States - and I suspect you do - go to Ebay and buy something from user "lazerwave," such as this.
