No, it does not. I own the TX-NR696 (purchased Oct.2022.) It only receives BT audio, it cannot send. The TX-NR6100 model does support bi-directional Bluetooth connectivity which will send BT audio to headphones or other BT devices, as you had asked. If I had to do it all over again, I would have bought the TX-NR6100 to future proof. It supports HDMI2.1 and supports 8k@60hz & 4k@120hz - The TX-NR696 only supports up to 4k@60hz (This requires reading the supplemental release notes to enable "enhanced mode" aka 4k@60hz.) The TX-NR6100 seems to run about $150-$200 more than the TX-NR696 from the research I have done. As far as wired speaker functionality, they are even in power output capability. The TX-NR6100 is the AVR to buy - if you need Bluetooth-to-headphones capability & desire the other specs of the TX-NR696. Good luck!
