Nasty slap echo

Oh jeez, now I gotta go and check my comfy Scan leather swivel/recliner I've been using for years to see if it is mucking up my sound....:-)

Rrog,

No, my Ekornes leather audio chair is not an issue. I suppose if the back went clear up to the top of my head it may be an issue. It does not.

I also have a leather couch in the room. I suppose I should a/b verses a cloth couch.

My room has many GIK absorption panels so I suppose the leather may be a good overall balance. Don't know, but the sound is very, very good indeed.

Rrog,

Question for you and others. Does the leather on my couch cancel the frequency absorption properties of the mass beneath it?

Forgot to clarify that my question is mostly concerned with bass control?

You say that in jest, but if the top of the chair is above your head it does affect what you hear.
A few years ago my wife bought me a very nice leather chair for my birthday. When I picked up a low-back chair at a garage sale for $5, I was afraid it would hurt my wife's feelings if I moved the expensive chair to the side. The $5 chair made a significant improvement in the sound so it stayed.
