I owned several Eames chairs.
IMO the chair is too low, and sits angled too far back for listening. Pay careful attention to your ear height before u buy......
Funny thing about the knock-off I have, the daydreaming angle isn't as high. I like it's angle better than the real thing.
And about the chair being too low for tall people, I'm 5'-5" tall and it fits me fine, so I can see taller people having issues.
The actual seat height on my chair has sunk over the years and is better now than it's ever been, my ear height is lower but the angle of my speakers can be adjusted. I have a 1/4" steel plate under my rear speaker spike, going to upgrade to a 3/8" plate soon.
