A:AnswerHi smallheadlady, thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. We understand that finding the perfect fit for headphones, especially for those with smaller head sizes can sometimes be a challenge.
The WH-1000XM6 and our WH-1000XM series in general, are designed with an adjustable headband to accommodate a wide range of adult head sizes. However, there isn't a specific 'small head' or children's version of these particular headphones.
We highly recommend trying on at an authorized Sony retailer if possible. This will allow you to personally assess the fit and comfort for your head size and ensure it provides the secure feeling needed for the best experience.
Please be assured that we value your feedback and will take it into consideration for future product releases.
Thanks for considering Sony products!

Stephanie
A:AnswerYes it can be. You can turn it off in the sound connect app that’s free on your phone. Or you can turn it off on the headphone itself with a button to turn on ambience instead.

A:AnswerThank you for contacting Sony, Charlie.
We can confirm that the WH-1000XM6 does integrate fully with popular smart assistants. You can activate Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, allowing you to control your music, get notifications, and perform other tasks hands-free. While the headphones do not directly integrate with the Apple Home ecosystem for device control, they pair seamlessly with Apple devices via Bluetooth.
Regarding the microphone features, the WH-1000XM6 utilizes our advanced Precise Voice Pickup Technology. This technology uses multiple microphones and advanced audio signal processing to achieve both Environmental Noise Control (ENC) and Microphone Noise Cancelling. This ensures that your voice is isolated and crystal clear during calls, effectively suppressing background noise like wind, traffic, or office chatter for the person on the other end.

The Sony WH-1000XM6 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones are not rated for water or sweat resistance and do not have an official IP rating. They are premium over-ear headphones primarily designed for travel, office, and daily listening, and are not intended for heavy exercise or use in rain or snow.

A:AnswerHi Chris,
Thanks for reaching out with your question about the WH-1000XM6 headphones! We can certainly assist you with that.
The quality of the sound is determined by the codec used for the connection.
Try to check the codec and change it, if possible, to improve the sound quality.
It is possible to get 96 kHz using the LDAC codec.
We hope this helps.
Thanks for considering Sony products!
