Try these guys/gals:

http://www.museum-karlshorst.de/

It is the German-Russian Museum in Karlshorst, at the site of the surrender of 9th May. They have the original documents, lots of pictures, and the room re-arranged as it was on the day.

I am sure they are happy to help. If not, you have an excuse to bugger off to Berlin for a while.

In this photo, which shows Keitel in Karlshorst before or after signing the unconditional surrender, I can see mics. What were the mics for? Are there audio recordings?
