The chair I had for over a year now. It is an Eames Replica, (not the original) but am quite happy with it

 
 
oooooooh, details please! is it a lot more affordable than an original?

Hey daveDerek:
 
It is about a quarter of the price of the original.
 
They are available on eBay. I bought mine from a chap in Montreal, but I don't see any listings from him currently. There are some USA sellers that seem to carry the same chair, and if you live in the States, would save you some coin not having to go through customs. here is a link:

One way to get rid of ants is to put sugar down, eventually it rots their teeth and they die of gum disease.

It's really between a replica like this or a Zero G recliner for my listening chair. I'll have to find one of each to sit in and just decide that way.

Just received my Liquid Lightning and SR-009 this week and wanted to post up some picks of my system as it currently stands. 
 
Going to listen to the SR-009 for the next week or two before posting my comparisons with my LCD-3 system, but so far am really liking what I am hearing.

That chair is only two hundred dollars cheaper than my headphone/amp/DAC rig.  It better be the most comfortable listening chair in existence.

^^^ is that with shipping cost?

It's probably closer to the same price, with shipping.  Not on both ends, mind you.  Shipping from China cost me $75.

States shipping is $179 to Canada,not sure about the States, or international.

It is a very comfortable chair, and for these types of chairs $1000-1500 is about the usual. The original Eames lounge chair can be purchased here:
 
http://store.hermanmiller.com/Products/Eames-Lounge-Chair-and-Ottoman
 
Its only $4500.
 
So the one from ebay is starting to look more like a bargain?

 

[Maverickmonk]

That is an absolutely gorgeous chair, and it looks like one to just melt into and enjoy the music. Incredible!
 
 
 
 
Now, it's time for my not-so-summit-fi, college student self to point myself in the direction of the nearest Ikea for a $100 Poang

...but someday, someday that Eames will be mine!

I wish I had the dough for that kind of chair.  I'd feel I was betraying it if I wasn't using the SR-009 or LCD-3 with it, though.  Now all I have to do is scrounge up ~$15,000 for an SR-009, a Liquid Lightning, the NFB-20 and that chair.

I like this one better, black leather, less than $1k and free shipping.
