Dumb question? WHAT IS YOUR SEAT/ CHAIR?


I am starting the build of a dedicated room, and I am deciding on which seats to use. I am very fond of the Jacobsen egg seat, which is a rather tall one person chair made of fiberglass, with cushioned fabric:

My only concern is that the seat is about the same height as the top of your head when seated, so your ears are "blocked" from the rear reflections/echoes/etc. Has anyone experienced with different seats/couchs and noticed any noticeable difference? Should I only worry about what is coming from the front? Or should I be worried about losing the rear reflections?

These are very comfortable to actually recline on them, and would suit my deco a lot!

Thanks for any input

The seating seems to make a very large difference.

I orignally was using a chair from Plummer's (a cheaper knockoff of the Ekornes style), but I found that some of the internal springs buzzed during loud bass passages. Then I moved to a leather sofa with the back around mid-ear level. I used a thin blanket over the back and found it helped cut out some excessive sibillance. I recently tried a thick comforter, and it helped further. I then moved the sofa off to the side of the room and tried a cloth office chair (the back was well below ear level)--- and WOW! what an improvement on the clarity of the treble! This won't be my long-term chair, but now I am looking for a chair or sofa with a low back, made of cloth with some decent padding. My cable dealer heard the story and thought there had been comb filtering going on.
Ikea Poang chair. Very comfortable and supportive. The back is a little higher than my ears. It puts my ear height at about 34".
I bought an Ekornes 20 years ago and it's the only thing in my listening environment that hasn't changed (over, and over, and over again...)
