The soundbar is not directly compatible with Apple TV. Apple TV is a streaming app for televisions, not for soundbars. However, you can connect the soundbar via HDMI-eARC to a compatible Sony TV that supports Apple TV. The sound from Apple TV would then be played via the soundbar. The soundbar itself does not have its own Apple TV functionality.

Yes, the soundbar can be mounted on the wall. There is a fixture with suitable drill holes and screw spacing that allows horizontal mounting on a reinforced wall. Mounting is done with two screws 585 mm apart and it is recommended to have the installation done by a Sony dealer or a licensed professional. A wall mounting template (WALL MOUNT TEMPLATE) is supplied to facilitate correct positioning. Screws and brackets for wall mounting are included or at least recommended, although screws for the wall itself are not included. The soundbar is hung on the screws that are fixed in the wall. In addition, two plastic wall brackets and screws are also included, which are specially designed for wall mounting the soundbar.

Yes, the soundbar can be connected to an Alexa ECHO Show. You can control the soundbar via Amazon Alexa if they are in the same Wi-Fi network.

The subwoofer can be placed either upright or lying down. There are no specific instructions that require it to be placed exclusively upright. However, the positioning of the subwoofer can influence the sound, as it is best placed in an area that optimises the bass response.
