    I asked my dentist about buying a dental chair he might be retiring. After hearing my explanation to his question "why do you ask?", he just laid on more laughing gas.

    I have the same set up in grey. I inherited it when my Father In Law bought himself something "nicer."

    I must say I love it for listening. I thought I might buy an Eames chair but I can't justify the expense.

    I recommend my chair, that is if you're into old broken in leather chairs.

    chairs actually do make an audible difference. I highly recomend a nice office chair with a low back.

    I'll have to try one of my dining room chairs in place of my Laz-boy. But it'll have to be quite of an audible difference to give up the comfort of the Laz-boy :).

    If you have a high back it will be a big difference. The office chair I got was about 200 bucks and is as comfortable as most laz-boys. The beauty of office chairs is that they are ergonomically designed for long term use. they even rate them for 4 hours, 6 hours and 8 hours of continuous sitting.

    I don't. I got it at Office Depot. I just went there and sat in all the chairs and picked the one that fit me best. When I get back to Vegas I'll see if I can get you the specifics on my chair. But I don't think my chair was anything special.

    Sure looks comfy. I don't think I'd be able to get up from it without an assist.

    You need a recliner. Well, maybe you don't, but I couldn't survive without one.

    Whatever is comfortable, I prefer a nice sofa. Ultimately, if you rig is good anough, it will sound great in seat.

    We have quite a few chairs like that where I work. To be honest I find them uncomfortable to sit in for any extended time (over an hour).
    I would have to strongly agree with you on this one :). I'm not doubting the SQ gains some are finding using chairs that don't have a head rests. But for me comfort is almost as important as the overall SQ of my system and the music I listen to.
    I would also have to agree with this as well :).
