Leather couch, leather love seat or single wooden chair

In an ongoing effort, I'm trying to get the best sound in my room-aren't we all:)  I'm curious to know what most of you have as your listening chair.  I started out with a 3 seat couch, went to a 2 seater and now am using a single chair.  Back in the war of 1812, my left arm was damaged, so I have to get 2 men and a boy to move these items out of my room.  Because there's a time lapse, it's hard for me to tell which is the best.  My wife votes for the two seater, but neither of us gets to sit in the sweet spot.  Please give me your experiences and recommendations.  I would love to make the two seater work.  Maybe we can sit on top of each other:)

Couch on 1 side, loveseat on the other and my stressless in the money spot.  Sometimes I’ll give it up to somebody else, but I am the one choosing the equipment because it’s important to me.  The rest of my family would be happy with Bose or even less.

You are very lucky to have a wife that let you swap the furniture out or around in the room. With me, my wife lets me have the wall where the stereo equipment is and the rest of the room and wall are hers. Large leather sofa 2 large leather recliners and the walls are covered with 3D art work.

Two recliners with ottomans, one in the sweet spot.  Leather, and high-backed, they are comfortable, but high-backs are a no-no for audio.  Comfort is also important, and I have long been looking for a replacement.  I do listen alone, and I prefer it that way.  Finding a comfortable chair with a low back and arm-rests that is a good hieght off the floor at a price I can afford (i.e., cheap), is more difficult that I thought it would be.
