Refreshing change from Poang and Eames!
Yes, it was custom built and to sit a little lower than usual for this kind of chair, to allow for better tweeter-ear height relativity.
I had similar concerns when I got my Ekornes recliner. What I discovered was that a padded fabric surface behind the head does not mess with audio, however, leather upholstery behind the head does create the 'cupping' effect and other peculiar audio effects and is best avoided.I ask because I am thinking about getting rid of my 3 seater sofa and getting a comfy single seater. What I don’t want is the backrest of the chair to act in any reflective sense, like cupping ones ears - but in a bigger way.
Big Tabs…
My ears are about juuuust below the back of the headrest and side wings. I was concerned about this and had asked to lower the whole back of the chair. The builder advised against this based on looks. I took his advice and took the risk. I have not noticed a difference between this and my older chair (so far) thank goodness. I do like to rest my had back on occasion so overall so far I’m happy with my choice.
I've just worked out that it must be a window with a blind.What's that up on the wall high up between the speakers?
I’ve read a lot of good things about those speakers.Just a little over one year now with the Sony speakers and I can easily say the honeymoon is ongoing. Most of the time I've been powering them with solid state (JVC), but recently put a tube amp (Audiomat) back into the system for the winter, and the Sony's still impress. Mind you the Audiomat has a bit of a solid-state sound signature, but the speakers allow the extra resolution to shine through. My first impressions when I set the speakers up last year were that they would be long term keepers, and nothing in that time period has swayed my opinion. These are the best overall speakers I've had 30 years in this hobby.

They really do exceptional speakers when they want to. They look pretty serious too.They are seriously good! I've had a dozen sets of speakers during my time...these really float my boat. Most folks won't get past the Sony label though.
Most people will initially be put off by the price, then the label will bring worry about depreciation.They are seriously good! I've had a dozen sets of speakers during my time...these really float my boat. Most folks won't get past the Sony label though.
