Default What chair do you guys use (live reinforcement)

Hey guys,

I currently mix behind a profile sitting on top of a split case and the mix rack. I've been searching trying to find a seat that is tall enough and comfortable to sit most of the day. I know there are some expensive "good" chairs out there but I would like to keep the price reasonable, not looking to dump a grand on a chair to throw in the back of the 18 wheeler.

Thanks!

Look for a chair meant for use as a "drafting" chair, they usually raise higher than a normal office chair, and will lower down to normal desk height...swivels, on five casters, and I do like arm rests, and it's nice if the back adjusts and leans back a little.

Thanks for the link. Guy out with us has a nice Herman chair but they run around 1k but it is amazingly comfortable. He was lucky and picked it up from a friend for dirt cheap, which is why when a fork lift broke it, he wasn't too upset.

I love the Herman chairs but taking it on the road, it would have it's own case that would be 1/4" steel plate instead of laminate over the plywood
