I too have successfully rolled back to 52!
The process I followed was as follows
- Download 52 firmware from B50 Firmware Version Update 52-452f344c
- Put firmware on a FAT formatted USB drive. I used a very old Lexar JumpDrive 2.0 pro (256MB)
- Connect the hdmi cable to the B50 and to a suitable device, I used a Chromebook and a dock.
- Once connected the lights on the B50 stop flashing and I was able to select the BT input on the amp by using the volume control once connected via Bluetooth I was able to select USB and I was immediately notified about an available upgrade.
- Clicked the upgrade and within seconds B50 was restorted.
Thank you @Topher52 and @arboeh for having the smarts to try the HDMI port! You have made my weekend!
