Dumb question? WHAT IS YOUR SEAT/ CHAIR?


I am starting the build of a dedicated room, and I am deciding on which seats to use. I am very fond of the Jacobsen egg seat, which is a rather tall one person chair made of fiberglass, with cushioned fabric:

My only concern is that the seat is about the same height as the top of your head when seated, so your ears are "blocked" from the rear reflections/echoes/etc. Has anyone experienced with different seats/couchs and noticed any noticeable difference? Should I only worry about what is coming from the front? Or should I be worried about losing the rear reflections?

These are very comfortable to actually recline on them, and would suit my deco a lot!

Thanks for any input

Everybody's Butox is different. I'm not tall, and have short legs.
I find I can 'fit' the Steelcase Leap so I could just about live in it.

I'd recommend going to a seating store specialist and doing trial sits in a bunch of chairs.

Some chairs come in sizes which may help.
My work, for example had the HumanScale 'Freedom' chair. I hated them and couldn't get comfortable, even in the few that were still working properly.
I also tried the Aeron Chair, but found the seat too deep and it caught me right behind the knees. No sale.
All above are 800$ chairs. Before you get nutty with leather and head rests.

First of all, thanks mcgiver22 for your input on how to interact with people here...I will NOT take it into consideration.

On the other hand, I find most of you in the same dilemma as I am....a relax situation will definitively find you with your head resting on the chair (this means reflection from the chair itself), the head is the heaviest part of the body so any relaxing moment will mean having it resting on the back of the chair just above the ears. What I like about the egg chair is that I was going to make it with soft fabric, so it would be absorvent (the foam inside the chair works as absorvent material) in comparison to a leather chair. On the other hand, I can make a low couch, but it will not be so nice to relax on and loose into the music.....most of you suggested chairs where your head is resting on the back of it....
