The Chair

Sniper said:
You can find a copy of this chair at a reasonable cost. I paid $175.00 at a Thrift Store for mine. It's not authentic but it's one of the most comfortable chairs I've sat in, and it goes with vintage stereo equipment.

I want a Eames Recliner to go with my Heywood Wakefield furniture. Very comfortable chair. Find your local Herman Miller dealer and to sit in one or better yet take a nap in one! :yes:
 
Didnt plycraft also make a chair similar to snipers?
I would love to have one of those. I have my listening room decorated in a 50sish fashion, unfortunetly my pocket could not afford proper chairs, and I really dont have room. I am using two chairs that are similar to the poang and its very comfortable.

I would still like a pair of Barcelona Chairs with ottomans.
Unfortunetly even the imitation ones are a little pricey.

Or you can become AKs own super villan and have this chair.

Man...I want one of those vintage Eames chairs! But I'd have to sell off half my gear to afford one.

I guess the search is on for a thrift store score. I checked CL and eBay they all seem to go for well over $2000+.

Think of it as buying a nice piece of vintage electronics. If purchased properly it could be a good investment and maybe even flipped for a profit if you decide to sell it later. :thmbsp: If you are serious forget the copies and get the real thing.

Yeah I've thought about that. But I can see coming home and saying "Hey honey I got a 30 year old vintage chair to match my vintage gear, it only cost $2000."

I probably could get away with it if I had bought my wife a new Lexus for Christmas!

:yes:

I'm sorry, I was just teasing you about some speakers you have that "some" folks here make fun of. It's a GREAT looking, and I bet SOUNDING, room.

And that's what counts. :thmbsp:




(But the Bose really do have to go.) ;)

Actually, they really do sound great in this room. Of all the Bose speakers the 301's have gotten the best reviews in this forum. I'll stick by them. They look brand new and they were inexpensive and like I said, they sound great!

I can take the heat.
