A:AnswerHi AntB77, Thank you for the inquiry. The X80J and other 2021 models support the A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) Bluetooth profile. With this A2DP Bluetooth Profile, you can pair some wireless headphones, speakers, or soundbars to the TV through a Bluetooth connection, however, the devices must be compatible and we can only listen to one paired device at a time. I hope this helps! Jay

A:AnswerMine is on a wood file cabinet that is 34" Long X 21" deep. The feet of the stand are 26" Long X 11 deep and it fits perfectly. The 16" should fit but you won't have as much room front and back as I do but if you use a cable box you have lots of room on the side.

A:AnswerBest thing is to pull up the manual PDF for this tv or go to Sony .com. I don't have Alexa and can't find it in the system at the moment. I thought it does, but you need to get the Alexa seperatly.
Found this: On Google Play download The Alexa App to your TV.
The remote has a search by voice button as well.
We love this TV. It is clear.
