The BEST Listening Chair u’ve ever had or saw??




We are building a house and I’ve been looking for the “Perfect” listening chair/recliner etc…

I want something that is;

• very comfortable but “not” too big or too cushiony
• has a head rest but not so wide to block or reflect the music as I’m listening
• reclines
• strong & sturdy
• has arm rests
• leather – steel – teak – mahogany

Maybe I’m crazy but I’ve been looking for several months to find the perfect chair for my listening room. A love-seat could do if it isn’t too big. My listening room will have only 1 or 2 chairs and my music system… that’s it – it’s my sanctuary.

Anyone out there have a particular listening chair they use? I’d really appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks
David

found a chair in tucson thats identical to the memorex chair.....its perfect.
my dad left me two "vintage" office chairs from the early 50's- mahogany and leather (with rivet borders). they make you sit up VERY straight, with nice arm-rests. there's nothing behind your head, as the chair only comes up to your shoulder blades.
the chair is very supportive and comfortable for business meetings and employment interviews...
okay, i'm not being totally serious here, but otoh the chair makes you very aware of where your body and ears are in relation to everything in the room. if you need to move your seat as little as an inch, no problem! and if i really wanted to or needed to, i could either saw down the legs or raise the height without worrying about the consequences.
right now i have one dead centre between two guarneri homage speakers, and the imaging is as good as you could want.
now i realize Dwl is looking for something nice, not an old heirloom piece of junk, but the chair i'm describing is really pretty nice; if otoh you place me in a primo recliner, i'm liable to start snoring within 10-15 minutes. i say leave the recliner in front of the tv set, and get a "captain's" chair for the stereo...
Thanks tiregy, I have had a couple of people email me today, one of them purchased a couple of chairs. I appreciate the references. I signed up for membership, but my final email has not come yet. Thanks again--BR
No problem Brent, when someone treats me right I like to spread the word, another one of my local friends will be in touch with you before the end of the month he loves my chairs!
Do you guys know of a sofa similar in design to "Zero Gravity Chair"? I really need more than one seat (married)
