Listen...chair

Human Touch Zero Gravity Perfect Chair baby!
Don’t care if the headrest ain’t acoustic.
So freaking comfortable I enjoy the music more anyway.
Buy used though. New is too pricey.
Got an Ekornes initially cause it cost less but it can’t even touch a Perfect chair. Got a pair ($5K+ new) for $150 on Craigslist. Boom!!!
(that kind of deal pretty rare but patience will get you like new for $500 maybe)

My perfect listening chair is a tweed cloth barrel chair that swivels and rocks.  The curvature of the back and sides of the chair gently hugs my body, and the back of the chair ends at the small of my back.  The chair allows my ears to be fully unobstructed, and the swivel and rocking features allow me to slightly adjust my forward, backward, and side position -- which I find useful based on the genre and particular mix of the recording.  In addition, I have the same style chair in the listening room which permits me to "double-up" the seat cushion, raising my listening position. The chair is supported by 5 metal legs, which permits easy room placement but secure when placed on the carpeted floor.  These seat options are perfect for me, since I have pairs of Triton One, Martin Logan, and Axiom floor standing speakers arrayed in the sweet spot relative to the chair.

It smells like teen spirit...dude

I pondered this very question for quite a while and then purchased a anti-gravity chair for like $40. The cosmetics will not receive any awards, however it is surprisingly comfortable. There does not appear to be much that would adversely affect the sound quality, even with the high back. 
So how does it sound? IDK because I need to do a room conversion to implement the audition of this chair. Perhaps some other member who has listened with one could offer the pros and cons of this value chair.
