Listen...chair


I am on the hunt for a good chair...for small room...don't want it seal to floor...legs preferably...

Question is leather seems to sound better cause it doesn't soak the room of sound....opinions?

nonoise,
Thanks for the info. I will keep it handy for the future. Do you have the LC2 or the LC3? The LC3 on that site looks awesome! How do you like the chair? BTW, my chair is so similar to the LC3, but it is fabric.

@bondmanp,
Check the first post. I have also posted the link.
milpai,
I don't have the LC2 or 3 but have seen them on the site where I got my Barcelona lounge chairs. If they are made to the same standards as what I have, they must be real nice. If I had the room, I'd invest in some more mid-century chairs instead of stereo. :-)

All the best,
Nonoise
And lest anyone forget, Knoll is a reproduction as well, and the best, but those prices!

Not true...
Knoll produces all the Mies furniture under licence from Mies' original drawings and pays royalties to the Mies van der Rohe Trust.
In fact the original drawings for the Barcelona chair were left behind by Mies in Berlin as he escaped the war and all the new chairs had to be made following the design of the Phillip Johnson original Barcelonas which he had in his glass house in New Canaan.
Knoll has unforgivably changed the thickness of the glass in his Barcelona table from 3/4" to 1/2". Easy to have a top made in the original thickness. I do......
Cassina has the rights for the original Le Corbusier furniture and they have been faithfully made from his (and Charlotte Perriand's) original drawings for 50 years.
Originals are expensive but certainly in Cassina's case they are worth it.
Knoll's chrome quality has been dubious for many years....

I didn't know they paid royalties but I did know that they were the only ones in America who made them to spec. I thought that kind of made them reproductions. Too bad the chrome work is not up to par. The ones I have measure the same and are solid steel, like the originals, but the finish isn't quite mirror like but close enough for the girls I go with. For what Knoll charges for the tables, they should have kept with the 3/4" glass.

Anyway, great furniture. Thanks for the history.

All the best,
Nonoise

milpai - thanks, but that chair is the wrong color for my grey and white HT/listening cave.  There are other colors, but they are not on sale and over $400.  The search continues.  In my price range, I really need to go to discount furniture stores and try out the chairs.  One place where the interweb won't help me.
