Hmmm Mika, the beer, food and music must have been particularly fine that evening as I really don't remember visiting your wonderful home. We also appear to have moved on one letter in the alphabet as I am Mr S. Your friend is my doppelganger from the side... ;)Quote:

I have lusted Eames Lounge Chair for ages and knowing the prices have decided that will not buy any cheap copy and instead will try to hunt down an used original. However last week one of my work collegues said that his friend is moving and has China imported Eames copy for sale. The chair had been bought directly from factory for sale few years ago and has "upgrade" leather installed instead of some cheap stuff. I though this over and over again during few days and as the price was way cheap I swallowed the bait with the line, rod, fisherman and the boat also. So now I have fake Eames Lounge Chair standing at my living room. I know. I will burn in hell for this.

The chair is fairly good quality and the leather especially is something else than usually with the el cheapos but despite that of course it's not the same thing than the original. It feels solid and is really comfy thou. So alas! I've taken decision that at some point I will buy new original one if do not bump into 2nd hand option. When this happens? I do not know but from now on that will definitely be one of my targets..
Good decision! This is art with function!
Besides, i think you'll enjoy music even more with this "upgrade"
Enjoy!

Very promising have to say! I think I have to play bit with the speaker positioning, switch the side for other supertweeter and also get those monsters some "legs" or stands that raise them little out of the floor..
Feck me! There be monsters! :)
I'm sure you are a happy bunny Mika, looking forward to hearing some more on your impressions!
Apart from all their other fine attributes they would also make the most excellent party speakers... :D
Those speakers and that room look AMAZING Mika.
If the set-up sounds as good as it looks then you are one lucky dude :)
what's that stuff on the walls - art or room treatment? if later, what exactly?
