Thanks for the information!
How can one go about this to update the speakers? I have no idea. My bl18’s are still terreific so iam not complaining or in a rush :p
It would be interesting to know if the BL20 update includes an ARMAGEDDON fix !

Apart from a B&O technician, the only other way to update is via WISA (i.e. Beolab transmitter 1 I am pretty certain is capable of SW updates for speakers; or, and this is pure speculation, could speakers be connected via WISA to a beovision and a SW update can be pushed via the Beovision?

Please if anyone finds out about what specifically changed with the SW updates (especially in light of elephant's question).

Have you had any more instances of ARMAGEDDON, elephant?

In total I have had 3 - and none recently
All my wisa speakers have been updated and they are much more stable now when using in conjunction with the eclipse
How did you do that/how was it done? My bl18’s are wired, so should i connect them via wisa? I have no issue with them, but am curious. Is there a way to revert back if anything goes wrong?

The improvements address general connection stability issues, drop-outs, and compatibility with Klipsch 3rd Party products. 

But how you update those?
