Can anyone tell me if this is the stock audio system for an '81 300SD?

Yeah it should have a Becker 612 in there from the factory.

I know that was the stock stereo on my '81 240D and for years prior to 1981. However, I am unsure if they used that on the higher end cars. It's a question of when the Becker BE612 was first used. My '86 SDL came with the Becker 612 when I bought it used, but it really should have had the BE 754 in it (someone got it off of an earlier vehicle). Bottom line: that is a stock stereo from 1981; whether it's from a 300 SD is another story.

in 1979 they still used the europa beckers--
much better looking! yes-- do yourself a favor and install 4 speakers of stock size, all new wiring, a new head unit of your choice, an amp and a single small subwoofer. itll make a WORLD of difference in how much you enjoy the car! when i got my 240 i immediately installed new speakers in the factory locations(2 in the dash...) and left the becker, adding an ipod and tunecast. sounded like...well... 2 tweeters producing sound transmitted over fm radio waves... so i completly reworked it and it is very nice! links to pics: Subwoofer box and some images: http://www.benzworld.org/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=1231232&posts=15 Adding rear speakers and HeadUnit(rear shelf was rotting, had to build one of masonite): http://www.benzworld.org/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=1223762&posts=7
