SOUND TOOLS FOR CREATIVE MINDS PREMIUM MATERIALS EN
At Master & Dynamic our obsession is the interaction
between sound and creativity. Our passion is building
beautifully designed, technically sophisticated sound tools
for creative minds.
Our MA770 Wireless Speaker introduces the New Geometry
of Sound. Designed with Sir David Adjaye, the WiFi or
Bluetooth-connected speaker is made of an acoustically
superior proprietary concrete composite.
23
The MA770 is outfitted with dual 4” woven Kevlar long
throw woofers, a 1.5” titanium tweeter and
diamond-cut anodized aluminum controls. An elegant,
magnetically attached steel grille is removable for those
that prefer the look of the exposed components and
hand-finished concrete.
Cast in a new geometric form, the proprietary concrete
composite provides exceptional acoustic benefits such
as increased dampening, reduced resonance, and a purer
sound. The dampening properties are so high that the
speaker can play at full volume without causing a record to
skip or the table and floor to vibrate.
SCULPTURAL COMPOSITION
Constructed in a seamless, sealed concrete composite
form, the speaker fills a large room with sonically
sophisticated sound, powered by 100 Watts of Class D
amplification. It can be used as a single unit, stereo pair or
multi-room setup via Chromecast built-in.*

is switched.
When the speaker’s source is set to BT, the volume of the
speaker is synced to that of the user’s mobile device.
When the speaker’s source is set to CAST, the volume of
the speaker is synced to that of the streaming app on the
user’s mobile device. Volume control must be done via the
streaming app.
EU ONLY: Google Cast setup is required prior to
connecting to any other source including Bluetooth,
Auxiliary and Optical.
When connecting/reconnecting the speaker to a power
source, the four SOURCE button lights will fast pulse as
the speaker powers up. Once flashing ceases, proceed
with setup/use. After startup, the speaker will slow pulse
on the CAST light indicating it is ready to connect to WiFi.

The stereo pair will be named after the left speaker with
the word “pair” added to the end. This pairing will be visible
when connecting to the speaker via Cast and Bluetooth on
your mobile device.
If the pairing has failed, the lights on each speaker will
quickly flash and then turn off. To cancel this setup, press
and hold the PAUSE button for four seconds.
