Welcome to TheWalkmanBlog Mark 2
Welcome to TheWalkmanBlog Mark 2.
The initiative for the move started about a few days before the WF-1000XM6 announcement, so it has been in works for a while. A lot has changed behind the scenes with the transition to WordPress and a dedicated hosting. The appearance and layout have been reworked significantly but in such a way that is still look familiar to returning visitors. Here is an overview of the new site.
Latest Posts
The top of the site has the latest posts on the blog. In addition the header navigation has been expanded with specific categories. One can use the navigation to quickly jump to the topic you are looking for.
- News – The latest news posts
- Rumour – Unconfirmed news and rumours.
- Reviews
- Audio
- Headphones – All posts related to headsets and earbuds.
- Walkman – All Walkman tagged posts.
- Xperia
- Technical
- Teardown – Quick access to all teardown posts.
- Certification – The latest certifications of new models.
- Firmware – The latest firmware details.

There are still some areas that I need to finish, like the archive, but for the time, the site is ready. Some areas will change in the future, same for appearance, but hopefully nothing to drastic.
Comments are turned on but use the build in comments from WordPress. If anyone has any lightweight and free comment plugins they would recommend, please contact me. FYI, one does not need an account here to make comments, just name and email. The email information will not be shared with anyone.
The site has no ads right not, but unfortunately I will add them when adsense is approved, to fund the hosting and domain costs. I’d like to thank everyone who helped with the move, especially LG.
Thank you and welcome to the new blog.


Neat! Very nice upgrade. All my best wishes in the continued journey,
Thank you 🙂
Congratulations on the redesigned website. I think it’s a great idea. As is covering Sony products more widely. Please cover the Sony Afeela 1 too. I think there is going to be some exciting stuff happening there.
I always followed the blog through RSS, wanted to ask if this is still an option?
Really appreciate the new design, and getting rid of the most intrusive ads.
(Also it seems like redirect does not work from the old URL, but hope people find their way here!)
The redirect uses javarscript, if your browser has it turned off or not supported, it will not redirect.
