Your listening chair

I was viewing a members system here on the 'Gon and he has a very near-field listening position. He has a listening chair and a foot-rest in front of the chair. A responder mentioned that the foot-rest is a bad idea soundwise.

This is a photo of his seating position SEATING POSITION

I listen from a loveseat. I'd love to get an ottoman to prop my feet up on or even invest in a recliner. I will be sitting 15 feet from my speakers.

Does an ottoman or a recliner present any problems for serious listening sessions?

thanks.......mitch

I have to say, I already know what that system sounds like "without" hearing and the word is "unencumbered".

At that close of a listening distance, you get some incredibly accurate sound transfer.

I am in the NF club and if you wish to hear more of the recording and less of your room distortions, it is one of the cheapest and best ways to elevate your system's perfromance.
