I'm not familiar with an 8 pin video connector?

Edit - looked up the NEC info, and a bit of searching shows that it's almost VGA compatible, signal-wise.

Info here (use google translate):

8 pin DIN connector layout shown here:

It's pretty much pin-to-pin by name for the VGA signals, but with 150 Ohm resistors added in series with the RGB lines to reduce the signal levels.

You mention clarity,,, Is this a CRT monitor and have you checked for a focus adjustment. If the monitor is "well used" then maybe you could increase heater supply voltage with a step up transformer or take one heater wire and wrap around flyback core to increase voltage.
