looking for a chair


I found a very comfortable chair for my listening room. It is the La-z-boy 354 rocker-recliner. It is roomy and very comfortable but it has a very high back. I don't know if the fabric will absorb or reflect the sound, but I am concerned that the soundstage will be destroyed. Do you think this would kill imaging or make the system sound more forward. I can't borrow it to try but I would be interested in your thoughts or your experiences with high backed chairs in your listening room. thanks

I use an "office" chair which pneumatically adjusts in height and is just high enough to rest my upper neck/lower head on the back, which is quite comfortable and does not reach my ears to reflect anything. Best of both worlds.
