Where to buy nice audio chairs / loveseats?

Hi,

I am in the market for a 2-person audio chair/loveseat.

Requirements are:

* Black leather (nice quality leather)
* adjustable footrest (motor or manual is OK)
* adjustable back
* cupholders
* good head support
* seats 2
* very comfortable

I would want to see / touch it in person before purchasing, so I'm not interested in internet items.

I have found one at best buy for $200 or so, but it looks and feels cheaply made.

My local audio dealer carries Cinematech, which is perfect, except the piece that fits my criteria is more than $5,000.

I'd like to keep it under $2,000 if possible.

I live in the Boston area... does anyone know where I could start to find a good compromise between the two extremes that I have found?

Thanks!

First you want as much air around the chairs as possible- no thick padding. Best if legs are exposed and air can pass under the seats. Scan Design or knockoffs with separate ottoman is a good way to go

Ekornos - Stressless are just wonderful chairs, and are just what you are looking for.

I bought two (for me and my wife) about a year ago and have been more than satisfied. Very good for your back and overall well being.

Hi,

Thanks for the replies...

Larryken - I looked through Lazyboy's online catalog, and didn't see much that was suited to audio/HT. Do you have any specific examples?

Chadnliz - That's a good point (that general furn. stores might have stuff). I've got a plan now to check out Jordan's (BIG furniture store in NE), and see if they would have anything.

Tweak1 - do you know where I would find scan design in the Boston area?

Yashu - Do you know where I would find those in the Boston area? I did a google search for Ekornos Stressline, and got 0 results in google. I also went to ekornos.com, and it was a spam site.
