The ULTIMATE in Listening Comfort (My New Throne!)

Inspiribomb

Inspiribomb

Enjoy the journey
Been a while since I've really had "a throne." You know what I mean - that big, masculine, super comfy chair that you can nap in or listen to music in absolute comfort for hours.

Well, I happened upon a screaming deal on a pair of Ekornes Stressless Jazz recliners. If you know Ekornes, you know they very VERY rarely go on sale/clearance, so I snatched these up. Boy am I glad I did, I've never been more comfortable, and my room has never looked so good. They are in paloma black leather, oh so soft.

Nice chairs, man! :thmbsp:

I went and looked at office/listening chairs the other day and found out that the budget I was kicking around was completely off - my tastes run a little spendier.
 
Very nice. They look great.

I had a sharper image massage chair in my sweet spot. My dogs ate it.
 
After looking around, I just realized that my mystery ottoman is from the Ekornes Stressless line. Now if I can only find the missing chair... :scratch2:

Those chairs look great. Do you mind mentioning where you got them? I could use some elegance and comfort in my room.
 
The chairs are great but I'm wondering where that table came from. It would be just the thing for an odd corner of my living room!

Looks a little like the Eames chair I have.

A friend of mine has an Eames and those things are so comfortable. I was an art history major in college with a keen interest in 20th century design. I was so jealous when he found one for $30. Yeah it is a little worn here and there, but it had the ottoman and it is still so comfortable. I fall asleep whenever I sit in it.
 
Those look like something Captain Kirk should be sitting in. Very Nice Aaron :thmbsp:


I think that you should let me have your old one. These Ikeas are making me crazy.

Nice chairs. My listening chair is a 30+ year old La-Z-Boy in a really bizzare burnt gold color. It belonged to my cousin's grandfather. Unfortunately, I had to repair it a few days ago - the glue joints in the back came apart due to age, which then let one of the wood support parts snap. Some screws and gorilla glue, and it's as good as new.
 
I just looked up the price on those bad boys online($4,000 a piece)!!:yikes::jawdrop: That has got to be one fine chair!:ntwrthy::ntwrthy::ntwrthy:
 
Thank you for all the compliments. You can find them at Schneiderman's, which may be a Midwest furniture store, not sure. Various other furniture stores carry them, some which specialize in Scandinavian stuff.

I love how the headrest elevates as you recline, for reading, watching TV, listening to music, or just because you are too lazy to hold your own head up. The headrests lay back too for "sleep mode." I was kinda of torn between getting the Eames Lounge chair and these, but after owning one, I find these to be much more comfortable, similar styling, yet different.

I did not pay anywhere near retail for these. Which is why I snatched them up - Ekornes never goes on sale.

PS - Forgot to mention, that wooden table is also made by Ekornes. You should see the black marble coffee table I just picked up yesterday (another great CL find), matches my furniture :)
