Legend 40.2 Silverback DS is for listeners who want the scale and ease of a serious floorstanding system without the clutter of traditional hi-fi. Four dedicated amplifiers in each speaker, DSP control, and a sealed 4-way design create a sound that is powerful, balanced, and deeply involving.
Bass reaches down to 20 Hz, dynamics stay intact at low volume, and the presentation feels clean, spacious, and emotionally direct. It brings real weight and elegance into the room, but keeps the system simple and visually calm.
To play, Legend 40.2 Silverback DS must be connected to a Stereo Hub HT or Surround Hub.

System Audio Legend 40.2 Silverback DS may be the best complete stereo system you can buy at this price
“It sounds like I’m listening to a pair of much more expensive and larger speakers, and the listed price looks like a typo. The high precision and excellent rhythm make listening to music fun and engaging.
The built-in room correction works well, and it’s important to follow the instructions to get the most accurate result. You can play classical music with a full orchestra or blast Tool at high volume—either way, it delivers a musically rewarding experience.”
LB Tech Review
All you need is two speakers and a small hub – and you have a complete system
“For many people, this is all they need to rediscover the joy of music. The System Audio Silverback 40.2 DS makes great sound easily accessible to more people.
The active four-way design with four dedicated amplifiers delivers impressive bass right down to the basement and a natural, well-balanced sound that works perfectly for all music. Easy installation, effective room correction and the option to expand to a multi-channel home cinema make this a really smart choice.
The sound quality matches far more expensive competitors, while the user-friendliness is top notch. For those who want true Hi-Fi quality without the stress and hassle of cables, this is hard to beat. A modern and smart way to think about true Hi-Fi.”

Bass-rich, it had just the right sense of snarl and grit
“Definitely a case of ‘more than meets the eye’, System Audio’s slender midrange active speaker arguably overflows with customisation potential, from automated and manual EQ via the optional Stereo Hub to a pick ’n’ mix approach to DSP. Tweakers will enjoy the flexibility, but more enjoyable still is the Legend 40.2’s compelling sound, which majors on resolution, bass power and a fine grasp of rhythm.”
Yellow Box
System Audio clearly shows a way for a much better sound
“The Legend 40.2 Silverback is a well-built speaker, which fills the space without compression effects and creates a precise and pleasant sound field in the ear, which will never get tired, even at high levels. The Legend 40.2 Silverback is one of the pleasant surprises of the year.
It is a high-end speaker. System Audio clearly shows a way for a much better sound and this is what we want!”
