What is the best 2 channel listening chair?


I've been using a Ames lounge chair for years, it looks and feels good ...but it's a little low...l was ready for an upgrade. I was reading you should avoid chairs that are higher that the shoulder, but l will choose comfort first,nothing too bulky,no theater seats.I recently purchased a Human touch pc610 (optioned out).So far its been fantastic.Any input or ideas on this subject would be appreciated.

Sounds great! I love it...l once replaced my chair and lost my center "phantom " image that took me so long to achieve....l was swearing for days...

I have three chairs in my listening room. One is a wooden rocking chair that has a padded leather back and seat. The other two are matching Ikea Pong leather chairs. So yeah many have criticized the finer points of deadened sound, reflecting and bouncing sound but hey.... it sounds great to me when I am listening with wine in hand or a pilsner. These chairs were not big buck items, just comfortable. Live and let live...

BTW I don't know who Michael Lavorgna is, but those Devore speakers are great, I have heard them with Line Magnetic amps. Very nice...

This is what Michael Lavorgna sits on, and has been since the '80s

He says it's very comfortable. I think my butt would get a flat spot but maybe the curve in it works against that.

All the best,

I probably shouldn't post this but l have a expensive pair of Ugg swede sheepskin slip on shoes that are only to be worn in my listening room....when l walk in there and put my feet up...l like to see the mcintosh meters between my uggs....l think the wife's about ready to kill me..lol

I watched a video from a USA manufacturer who was installing a set of his new speakers in a clients home and I was impressed by the two plastic  laundry baskets used to support acoustical treatment next to each speaker! Well the color white did match!

Lets all go to zip cord for speaker wire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a Hobby!

I have an Ames Chair!

Feels better than my expensive gear being fed by horrible internet radio!

Love the Chair!

IMO....l believe the room and its furnishings should be relative to the system.....in other words you wouldn't see a person with Wilson XVX speakers sitting on a milk crate or a lawn chair...

I am a bit of a minimalist and love my listening chair I bought at Ikea. 

Added memory foam and it is comfy and raises above the shoulders. 

Best $99.00 I spent on a chair.  

 

It's been claimed that chairs that are higher than the shoulder could have some effect on sound hitting your ear...lm not that picky....lf lm sitting in my listening room for several hours at a time..l want to be in "heven" comfort wise....and looks are important also...

Sorry… yes they do. If you have a high back chair the extends above your ears versus only to your shoulder… you bet there is a big difference. 
 

I use a dual recliner that goes to my shoulders. Mostly for my doggies to sit and listen next to me. A Wayfair purchase, nothing to rave about.
