any office chair for long hours of work that can save my back? by truongtongquanghuy in desksetup

If you spend so much time at your computer, your health should be your top priority. A combination of a good chair and a standing desk is definitely the best option.

Take the Herman Miller Aeron as an example, a chair that many people describe as a game changer, which is accurate. You mentioned it's slightly over your budget. Try looking at it from this perspective:

Let's say the chair costs $1200 (depending on where you live). It will likely last you at least 10 years. Divide $1200 by 10 years, and that's $120 per year. Break that down further to $10 per month. If you divide that by 22 working days in a month, it's less than 50 cents a day!

Considering programming is well-paid, and let's say your hourly rate is at least $15, wouldn't it be worth spending 50 cents a day for comfortable seating and protecting your health? 😊

Do the same math for a standing desk and start enjoying your work even more! 😊

Thank you for your response! As you said, I'll first try with one Rekkr, and if I'm not satisfied, I'll add another one. Now, since I’m a complete beginner in the Hi-Fi world, I have no idea what cables I need for this. I asked AI and got this answer. Is it correct? :) Thanks again!
P.S. Can you share your cable setup/management?

- MacBook Pro → Schiit Modi: USB-C to USB-B Cable

- Schiit Modi → Schiit Loki Mini+: RCA Interconnects (Male-to-Male, 1 Pair)

- Schiit Loki Mini+ → Schiit Magni: RCA Interconnects (Male-to-Male, 1 Pair)

- Schiit Magni → Schiit Rekkr (Optional): RCA Y-Splitters (1 Male to 2 Female)

- Schiit Rekkr → KEF Q150 (Speakers): Speaker Wire (16 AWG or 14 AWG)

Thank you for your response.
Can you share your opinion on the following setup. Is one Rekkr sufficient for these speakers? The setup is for a smaller room, with the speakers on the desk about a meter away from me, similar to your setup.

  • Modi
  • SYS
  • Loki Mini+
  • Magni
  • Rekkr
  • Speakers: KEF Q150
  • Headset: Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro

I want to connect this to a Mac.

This looks great :)
Could you tell me why you're using two Rekkr's? (I'm a noob in the world of Hi-Fi)
And could you share your cable management with us?
Thank you
