Listening Chair?

LeCorbusier Petit Tuxedo. Why? Because that guy in the Maxwell tape ad uses it. With Ellen Grey cocktail table. Just cant get my SET to play loudly enough.

Recliners are not for napping and being lazy, but not for serious active listening. You will lose the fight to stay alert and attentive in the reclining position. With a proper chair you will have improved perception of low level details, provided that your lower back is vertical and your head is in line with your back or even inclined a bit forward. I speak from experience- you should be comfortable but not too comfortable, with good posture. Otherwise the little hairs on the back of your neck will never stand up!

I switched from an ikea poang chair to a sofa and so very glad I did!

I preferred a sofa for listening also when I was younger but it was for non audio reasons.

Notec,
I have been using the Ikea Poang since 2004. Though I love it, the wife and kids want space in my room and I have been thinking of replacing it with either a love seat or small sofa. What advantages did you get with the sofa compared to the Poang chair?
