Welcome to Beoworld !

Here's a better photo:

The red antenna connector asks for the spade type male plugs (B in this photo)

It was later available as a one-piece plug:

The gramophone input will take the old style 3/4-pin plug (the white one in this photo):

 

Note that one of the pins on the side is divided sandwich-like and insulated to include two connections,
for the left and right signals respectively.
The brown plug is an old style 2-pin speaker plug and shouldn't be confused with the white gramophone one.
They have speaker and pickup symbols respectively cast into the bakelite housings.

Both of these plugs were available as a slim-line type too that was flat and just about 1cm high.

I don't think you will be able to find these plugs anywhere in shops etc. and I don't think
they have a specific name or type number as such.
Flea markets, carboot sales etc. would be where to look, I think. Maybe Ebay.
The old speaker and gramphone plugs are generally rare to find today, the spade type antenna plugs slightly less so.

Nice pics, glad you got there before me, Martin Smile

My 610K has the "easier" connector types, where the antenna sockets have provisions for banana plugs as well (and the phono input is a regular DIN, as seen here). Were these updated at the same time as 609K became 610K, or can these have either connector types?

The connector chance came with the new year 1964 (610) model that also
provided an expansion of the FM reception range from 100 MHz up to 108 MHz.

The Grand Prix models enjoyed the same connector update one year earlier.
