Yes the Stressles are expensive and there are a couple of reasons to get one. The quality and comfort are excellent. I currently have a home theater chair in my listening room. It's too bulky and the most of these chairs have a back that is too high and comes above your ears. The "Mayfair" large Stressless is perfect and my ear lobes when seated are about 39 inches above the floor and the back is at 38 inches.
Chair
I’ve been thoroughly bitten by the couch. My listening chair that is.
I’m forced to cut my listening sessions short due to lower back pain (chronic, result of an old injury). Looking to get something that would be comfortable enough to not aggravate the nerve in my tukhes and align properly with my speakers in a sweet spot.
Eames replica in leather? Ikea Poang? Anything else? What do you use?
