Where do you sit?

When you listen to music, where do you like to sit?

On the floor? Beanbag? Rocking chair? Sofa?

We just put a convertible sofa/bed in our new music room, and I must tell you it is by far the best tweak or upgrade you can possible get!

So where do you guys and gals set your posteriors for music enjoyment? After all, that is the payoff of this crazy addiction, and the best seat in the house!

Wherever my butt does not squash a snoozing cat. When I get serious I pull a low backed chair out from the dining table and place it in the near field.

Leather reclining chair in the sweet spot. It's probably not the optimal chair for sound reproduction, but it does just fine, thank you.

FYI - Bachelor with semi-dedicated sound room.

My wife and I have been listening for thirty years on giant bean bags with multiple buckwheat husk pillows to support our heads. With my sigtech I can get rid of the small high bass dip caused by them. When your top favorites include Wagner, Mahler and Bruckner you want to be comfortable for long periods of time/

i always thought that a barber's chair would be great. Comfortable, height adjustable, and can swivel. Only thing needed would be wheels to move to nearfield or farfield.
Bifocals?

Wow! Beanbags are pretty popular. I may have to investigate those. My recliner has a relatively "high back." I'm sure that isn't the best thing to have a few CM right behind my ears. I imagine a beanbag would alleviate that, hence their popularity!
