Chair


I’ve been thoroughly bitten by the couch. My listening chair that is. 
I’m forced to cut my listening sessions short due to lower back pain (chronic, result of an old injury). Looking to get something that would be comfortable enough to not aggravate the nerve in my tukhes and align properly with my speakers in a sweet spot. 
Eames replica in leather? Ikea Poang? Anything else? What do you use?

I have a Flexsteel Ezra, electric recliner with powered headrest and powered lumbar. Give one a try.

@rick_n - having your head above the back of the headrest makes a big difference. While listening to something with nothing behind your head, cup your hands behind your ears and hear the difference. That's essentially what's happening when the back and headrest are right behind your ears. 

Another intriguing swivel chair I've seen at high-end furniture stores and high-end hi-fi shops is called the Lobster chair; very comfortable and seat and back just the right height. Pretty pricey, though. 

I’ve been using an Eames replica for years. Original Eames chairs are not even all that comfortable from what I’ve been told by people who own them, I’m going to replace mine eventually as the spring mechanisms, and other aspects of the chair are beginning to weaken. The point is I would definitely get one again.
