The D+S Sound Labs' Surround Sound Chair

S+D Sound Labs have announced their latest gadget in the body of the Surround Chair, a no-nonsense tool for the audio purists out there. Far from being a toy, this rather intriguing armchair looks like a command chair from a starship. We're dealing with a large piece of high-tech furniture destined to immerse you in the deepest center of high-class listening with your fav movies and music alike.

[admark=1]The D+S Surround Chair is truly for the surround aficionados as it comes with a true four-way sound array with special construction so it will give you true surround without distortions and with carefully detailed accuracy. This massive chair sports dual front-channel drivers, twin rear/surround speakers and a dedicated subwoofer to let you experience the very minute details in your soundtracks.

The front channels are empowered with dual 5.25" drivers loaded in suspended PVC cases and oriented directly at your head, while the 4" surround speakers come from the rear of the head and above, from a special console.

The 12" subwoofer's sound comes to your ears from two pipes with flared ends, in a most unusual design; yet the driver array has one property which makes it stand form the crowd: the sound waves will not bounce from any surfaces (such as floor or walls) in their trajectory from the speakers to you ears and this translates in a very accurate sonic reproduction, especially suitable for the audio maniacs.

On the tech side, the D+S Sound Labs' Surround Sound Chair packs a 6 Ohms impedance with a 100W max RMS power rating and ranges from 30 Hz up to 20 kHz. The drivers sum up to a hefty 92 dB sensitivity while the total weight reaches 180 lbs (81.5 kg). This piece of audio furniture comes in no less than 24 different wood finishes to fit in any d?cor and will set you back some $3,000.
