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

The Karuselli chair looks like the ottoman option might be gynecologist stirrups? Gunbei thanx for the Ebay links, as for those prices the quality of the lounges looks like a a really good deal! I searched for about one year till I found the most comfortable Non-Fatiguing listening chair. A leather Recliner made by a company called Calia their Monda model. It has a multitude of listening positions & looks really kewl with it's brushed aluminum accents. My sister worked for a furniture store that carried the line at the time that I was looking.
