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

Gunbei.....I called the chair folks in your last post. They are sending me leather samples. They will make me one in the color of my choice for no extra charge.

This chair will be wicked in my room.

....thank you very much for this tip......and the laughs in my other posts.

Boa2,

That suit looks like a mid-fi listening suit.

A high-end hi-fi suit would have cut-outs for the ear holes.
