Just so everyone is clear, the differences pointed out between the Ultimate and Premiere series are only for your older generation from 2020. Almost all of what you showed was already updated last year with the current gen. The matte finish, softer leather, new cupholders and lights, new buttons, etc. are all current. The only differences now are the memory function, the few different color light choices and the even softer leather. Otherwise they are the same.
That exactly what I was about to point out. I really like the matte compared to our glossy, but other than that no improvement in my opinion. The color changing is also cool, but we always have them turned off anyway. I’d say it isn’t worth the price to upgrade. We paid $3,300. For a row of three of the previous gen. Not cheap, but doable. These would be 6K! Nope.
Hi there! 👋 We would like to clarify what takes the Ultimate to the next level. The matte leather is even more matte on the Ultimate. The Premier Tuscany is much different and has more of a sheen than the Ultimate. Think almost velvety smooth matte. It is also a higher grade leather; the Semi-Aniline 20000 has a protective layer and overall durability increase. The Ultimate is 100% covered in the upgraded 20000 leather, whereas the Premier Tuscany has leather only where your body touches. The back is perforated and has a double diamond stitching, instead of one. The LED light cycle offers 7 different colors, as opposed to 1. The hardware is Black Chrome finished, with a completely new design. You can also now save your position using the control panel. The armrest is lined with Parisian Velour. Same Tuscany design, but with elite luxury upgrades. Thank you for your feedback!
Valencia is based on Canada so I would think they should be able to offer that to you. If you use the links below, during checkout, if it’s available in your area, you will be able to select white glove as an option.
Here’s my wager: Before movie - all LED colors match, after movie, and guests bumping unfamiliar buttons in the control panel - all colors different. :)
@@Youthman hey youthman. I continue to enjoy all your content! Wanted to ask you if you’ve ever listened to the Arendal 1723s Monitors. I really think you’d enjoy them. 😉 I love your review on the SVS 3000 subs. I’m currently trying out both the PB and SB and it really seems like the PB is a clear winner. It just thumps deeper almost like the AMC Dolby cinema near where I live. I ended up getting the Arendal 1723s series for my home theater, Denon x4700, SVS front and rear heights and a Vava 4K projector. It totally feels like a real theater up in here. Hopefully you can stop on by one of these days when you come visit Los Angeles. This hobby has become an obsession lol. Love your channel man!
@@keepingupwiththejones2933 lol yes furry sorry voice to text dont like me. that abd i was implying that just because im almost in my 30"s im still a kid and those things are comfy as hell.
Many thanks for the great review. It helped us a lot with our order. We had the normal Tuscany seats for the second row and the Tuscany XL Ultimate Luxury Edition for the first row delivered to Germany. These seats are absolutely fantastic! We love them and definitely recommend them too.
One improvement that I think they need to make is to have separate controls for the underglow lighting and the cup holders as well as light level select. Anyone with a projector will tell you that the under seat lights are a hard no while watching any content on screen while having the cup holders lit would be a benefit. It looks like it's still all or nothing which is disappointing to see. Otherwise, they're fantastic seats and other than that little niggle, i couldn't be happier with my purchase. 😁
I agree. I have been “complaining” about the bottom LED light shining on the screen in a reclined position. Maybe one day they will direct it towards the floor.
It’s a real shame Valencia chose to make the much needed design/ quality changes on their “luxury” series and not change the premier series. I’m not talking about upgraded features, just basic design changes. But I guess it’s all about the Benjamins.
I love the updated chairs man. I like the fact that Valencia is listening to content creators and customers and making the requested changes. I am still loving my Tuscany's, beautiful chairs and amazing features.
I'm not so sure that's a crazy high price considering the top of the line quality you get. The White Glove install is also a great service for reasonable money.
Just to let you know I contacted Valencia support about one seat not retracting after 18 months. These guys were amazing. Sent me new motor which was not the problem then a new switch which was the problem. Everything works great. Do not hesitate to contact support for any issues you have.
I have absolutely LOVED my Valencia Tuscany seats over that last 2 years! Don’t think it’s worth upgrading for me to the luxury ones but great video nonetheless!………that matte leather though…….hmmmm🧐
The leather looks real nice on those new ones. Funny: Last video when you were sitting in them I was watching on my new iPad. I was like, “damn, look at the detail on this iPad. Youthman’s chairs never looked so good.” Then you mentioned the new chairs, and I felt stupid. Anyway, I think you’re old chairs are an older model than what’s being sold now. On mine, it has the deep arm rest compartments and the control buttons are in the same place as your new ones.
Hi Theo. A sponsored video is when a company pays a content creator to make a video (like I’m doing with Perlisten). I have always been transparent when a company has provided a product for free or if a video is sponsored. Sadly this is not the case with many other content creators that are making similar content as I am. Not only do I state it in the video, I also check the box that says “this video may contain paid advertising” and add a statement in the description. I’m assuming you feel I should spend 2-3 days filming and editing a video, provide free advertising for a brand only to box it up and ship it back to them? I have a pretty good assumption you don’t work for free. 😉
These seats are awesome. For this price point being luxury would love heated seats. I do these some changes should be made to the premier series like the cup holder and LEDs. I think that would be great. Next time we purchase some new theater seats these will be it. Thanks as always.
Look nice - good review. These are tricky because they sent them to you for review, if you trash em - no more Valencia products. But I like how you wove in suggested improvements in a way that makes it clear what you liked and don’t like!
Nothing tricky about it. I have always been honest and up front about what I like and like about a product. If it is straight up garbage, it won’t end up in my theater room. Valencia didn’t get to preview the video before it went live. Unfortunately there are many content creators in this space that do not disclose that information. To me, it’s a matter of character and integrity. Those mean more to me than any brand deal, sponsorship or free product. Thanks for watching
Thanks for the informative review. I have no problem with Valencia sending you seats, and wouldn't care if you were a paid sponsor or not. I want to see great content and chair features so I can make an informed decision. This video was great. Please continue to make more!
Thank you kindly Frank. My goal with every review is to provide enough info for consumers to be able to make an informed decision on whether that product is a good fit for them.
I also want the Tuscany luxury edition 1 single seat on each side and a love seat setup in the middle also want the 3/1 kit ( table , iPad,wine glass) how much to get this in Montreal Quebec and want the white glove service thank you 😀👍
Definitely get the white glove service, especially if your buying multiple chairs. I didn’t opt for the white glove service to try and save a couple dollars and I sorely regretted it.
The older gen power headrest action is by far the best for taller people... The new style (Oslo as well) hits you in the upper back and feels weird... Very frustrating!
I do notice that there is a different mechanics with the new seats. I too prefer the tilt and lift mechanics of the original Tuscany over just the tilt in the new ones. I'll provide that feedback to them and see if there is a specific reason why they changed the mechanics with the new ones.
@@Youthman do you like the new style headrest? This is one reason I'm not buying a set of 3 now. It's not ergonomic now... But won't hit the wall reclined.
Great video!! I was curious, I’m remodeling my theatre room and was wanting to know if you could help me with the black paint you used on your door in this video. The brand, color name, and the gloss? Thx so much, love your room.
Man I just love all the seat controls on these! My SeatCraft seating only has 2 buttons; recline back or recline forward to normal. Love all those options with these. Also the memory function literally made me shout “cool” out loud lol. These are absolutely on my radar now.
All I want to know is if my cat is going to destroy these seats with his claws or not. Spending that kind of cash on those incredible seats, it would be devastating to come home and see my cat used it as a scratching pole. I wonder if anyone who owns these chairs AND owns a cat has anything to say about this?
I recently ordered the Tuscany premier console edition for my living room to replace my old couch. Now the wait begins. Was thinking they could sell a hanging insert like a truck center console has for a shallow depth holder for remotes.
On your video about what you like and dislike about your theatre. You mentioned building your own screen. Is it still possible to purchase the acoustically transparent screen material? Could you point me in the right direction for that?
Hi there! Great question! We can do a curved configuration as a custom order. You can contact our Sales Department for more details: sales@valenciatheaterseating.com
Hi I was just wondering If would be good getting a pair of klipsch rp-280fs which are quite old now or buy a pair of klipsch rp-8000fs or just wait until klipsch announces a newly refreshed refrence premiere line.
I am trying to figure out if my feet will hang off, so how tall are you? Then that would give me a good comparison. Also I noticed that someone asked you to rate this for comfort 1to10 and you did not respond, could you please answer this question for me. Thanks
I"m 5'11". As far as not responding to a a comment, keep in mind, I have 100,000 subscribers + many who aren't subscribers commenting on over 500+ videos on my channel. Impossible to see, much less respond to them all. I would give the Ultimate Luxury a 9 out of 10 in comfort. Love the softness of the leather. The only thing I would change is the mechanics of the head rest. The original Tuscany lifted up and then forward instead of just swiveling forward. But overall, I absolutely love them. Hope that helps.
Great review. I am interested in the new luxury series and want to buy a single one. Not sure how much they cost or can i easily place my feet on the floor without wearing shoes. I am about 5ft 7 Thanks !
Hi so I made a choice to get klipsch rp 8000f, I just wanted to know what hdmi cables are using for your AV separates and projectors. Its very difficult to choose from a variety of choice. There are too many out there and its difficult to pinpoint the best.
Hey youthman! I enjoy your videos. I have a question to ask regarding madvr. Would love to maybe see a video on this topic: what exactly is madvr and how does it compare to using the Panasonic 820/9000 with projector use? Trying to learn about the tone mapping but having a hard time wrapping my head around all the details. Thanks!
@@keepingupwiththejones2933 dude, this info was great. So in a nut shell, MADvr does Dynamic (scene by scene/frame by frame) tone mapping and the Panasonic 820 does static? Also, currently running an epson 3020, but hope to upgrade to the rumored epson this year (4k pixel shift laser). Based on that upgrade, would MADvr be worth it or would the 820 do what I need to do? Not going down the Envy route... I aint got 7k to toss around. Ha.
@@keepingupwiththejones2933 Oh gosh ! Can't believe I forgot to ask this one. Can MAdvr be used on a disc if you HTPC has a 4k bluray drive or do you have to rip the content to the HD?
These are very Touch Sensitive like the top controls on my Valencia Premiere Seats. You have to physically push them and you will hear the button click
I find the fact that you occasionally hit the control on your seat accidentally and cause the seat to recline unexpectedly, deeply upsetting. I had no idea life could be so harsh 😁.
Mine must be a version between the two you have, my controls are on the arm rest, not the cup holder but I don't have the presets. The presets would have been nice but I think I can survive with what I have:-) White glove has gone up! If I remember correctly I only paid $175 for it for all fourteen seats and they had to take them upstairs to the theater. It was definitely worth it, even at twice the price, would still be definitely worth it.
That is correct. If I get paid, it’s a sponsored video. If I receive free product, I always disclose it. Unfortunately not every content creator does that.
If you have a high end theater room that holds 18 people, 3 rows of 6 would work great. When I built my theater room 15 years ago, the only option for my was theater seats. If I want to sit on a couch, I can do that in my living room.
@@Youthman i’ve seem some great rooms that merge ht rooms and living rooms. Best of both worlds. Love ur latest vids and really like when u focus on equip rack components.
@@mephInc Definitely dude. While I only have a living room home cinema. If I was lucky enough to have a dedicated home cinema I would go different for the seating. Individual seats with a nice unusual design, covered in a nice plus velvet fabric. Ones that look contemporary, not look like cinema seats. Everyone has different tastes, some like the cinema chairs look. While some don't like it at all.
@@iampuzzleman282 Living room style seating just gives a nicer more homely vibe to a home cinema room. My small living room is my cinema room lol, but I made it uncluttered. Stylish looking acoustic room treatments on the walls that blend into the room decor.
Im sorry but i have to say ive noticed every youtube home theater site recommends the same tuscany chair, its getting kind of ridiculous, somebody must be getting paid, again sorry but its extremely obvious
Unlike a lot of content creators in this space, I always disclose my relationship with brands that I work with and whether a video is sponsored or not. Last I checked it’s actually a law. As stated in the video, Valencia sent these to me for review but the video was not sponsored. I do have some sponsored videos I will be doing with them as they are flying me to Canada later this year to do a sponsored Home Theater Tour that features their products. Thanks for watching
It’s unfortunate that you are frustrated that content creators get paid for their work and sharing products that we feel our audience may be interested in. Regardless of whether you consider it a sponsored video or not is irrelevant. It is clear in the video that I received it for free. If that somehow offends you and is annoying, not much I can do about that. Out of curiosity, would feel better if they sent them to me to review, to spent 3 days filming and editing with over $7,500 of my own camera and lighting gear and a $2,500 custom PC that I built to create a review sharing my experience and what I like and dislike about it that is then placed in front of 90,000 subscribers that took me 4 years to develop that are interested in Home Theater for me to then box it all back up, and ship it back to Valencia and enjoy $188 from Adsense on the video (that’s actually how much I’ve made off the first Tuscany Review I did two years ago). Just a guess but if I went to your job, I bet somebody was getting paid. I sure hope one of them is you. 😉 Be blessed
I guess tuscany such and such is just advertising really hard because its the only home theater seat i see reviews for, but they must be giod even for the price ❤
Remember the Yellow Pages and banner ads on websites? Those no longer work. Brands that are growing the fastest are using social media to find new customers. Whether they are creating their own content or they are placing their products into the hands of content creators to share their experience with it. Marketing hasn’t changed. The method has.
A few of questions: How much space did you leave between the first and second row so that they can both be fully extended and not bother each other? How much taller is the second row compared to the first so that the second row can see the screen perfectly? At what height does your screen begin?
UNDERSTANDING THE PROS & CONS OF PERFORATED LEATHER.’ The Valencia, perforated leather seats, need some consideration before buying because they may not be for everyone! PROS Airflow - These seats allow air to pass through them, which helps to keep you cool. Sound absorption - The holes help to absorb sound waves. Comfortable - The seats are very comfortable, which means they are easy to sit on. They also come with a high backrest, which relieves pain and discomfort. Luxurious - The material offers a tactile sensation, meaning that it feels luxurious and smooth. This makes it an ideal choice for people who value style over practicality. Modern look - The seats offer a modern and stylish look. CONS Wrinkles - Wrinkles are common when using perforated leather seats because the material tends to stretch out more than regular leather. This means that the seats need to be maintained and taken care of. Small debris - The holes allow food and other debris to penetrate the seat’s interior. This could lead to stains and odors. Damage - If the seats get damaged, then the entire seat needs replacing. Therefore, make sure that you buy only quality products. Less durable - The material is less durable than regular leather, which means that it requires proper maintenance. It should be cleaned regularly to prevent dirt buildup. Costly - The seats tend to be expensive. To start off, I love the new seats and think they look great, and for many they will be perfect, just don’t spill anything on them. 1st Porous Leather Is Not Water Resistant or Waterproof. Porous leather takes fine leather and perforates 50% of it with holes, which deteriorates it's durability. It basically turns your 100% waterproof Italian Leather protective barrier, into a screen. Everything from pet & human dandruff to urine and beer will be permanently imbedded in the cushions through these holes, and there is no getting out the odors, or stains. Because of the breakdown Perforated leather causes, it requires more work to keep it in good shape. 2nd These kinds of seats are made for cars, not homes for a reason. Why? Because cars are subject to constant weather conditions, that allows quicker drying, and helps keep the smell, mold, and bacteria down. 3rd Since many home theaters are in basements, there can be high moisture, and humidity levels The basement moisture in combination of dust, liquid & food, pet dander, sweat, pet & baby urine, baby formula, or breast milk. In time, in a damp environment, bacteria, and mold can build up making your beautiful recliner very unhealthy. Due to the holes created on perforated leather seats, it tends to trap dirt within it and will require a lot of effort to keep it clean and conditioned. 4th Not Pet Friendly - With the holes cats and dogs that like to scratch can get their claws stuck in the holes, and if the urinate forget getting the order out. Look It's really important for consumers to know all the facts of the products they purchase, to allow them to make a conscious choice that their selection is one that meets all their needs and expectations.
Just so everyone is clear, the differences pointed out between the Ultimate and Premiere series are only for your older generation from 2020. Almost all of what you showed was already updated last year with the current gen. The matte finish, softer leather, new cupholders and lights, new buttons, etc. are all current. The only differences now are the memory function, the few different color light choices and the even softer leather. Otherwise they are the same.
Appreciate the additional info.
That exactly what I was about to point out. I really like the matte compared to our glossy, but other than that no improvement in my opinion. The color changing is also cool, but we always have them turned off anyway. I’d say it isn’t worth the price to upgrade. We paid $3,300. For a row of three of the previous gen. Not cheap, but doable. These would be 6K! Nope.
Hi there! 👋
We would like to clarify what takes the Ultimate to the next level. The matte leather is even more matte on the Ultimate. The Premier Tuscany is much different and has more of a sheen than the Ultimate. Think almost velvety smooth matte. It is also a higher grade leather; the Semi-Aniline 20000 has a protective layer and overall durability increase. The Ultimate is 100% covered in the upgraded 20000 leather, whereas the Premier Tuscany has leather only where your body touches. The back is perforated and has a double diamond stitching, instead of one. The LED light cycle offers 7 different colors, as opposed to 1. The hardware is Black Chrome finished, with a completely new design. You can also now save your position using the control panel. The armrest is lined with Parisian Velour. Same Tuscany design, but with elite luxury upgrades.
Thank you for your feedback!
Is the white glove service available in Montreal Quebec Canada

Many thanks for the great review. It helped us a lot with our order.
We had the normal Tuscany seats for the second row and the Tuscany XL Ultimate Luxury Edition for the first row delivered to Germany.
These seats are absolutely fantastic!
We love them and definitely recommend them too.
That’s great to hear! Thanks for sharing.
One improvement that I think they need to make is to have separate controls for the underglow lighting and the cup holders as well as light level select. Anyone with a projector will tell you that the under seat lights are a hard no while watching any content on screen while having the cup holders lit would be a benefit. It looks like it's still all or nothing which is disappointing to see. Otherwise, they're fantastic seats and other than that little niggle, i couldn't be happier with my purchase. 😁
I agree. I have been “complaining” about the bottom LED light shining on the screen in a reclined position. Maybe one day they will direct it towards the floor.
You can disconnect the floor lights, but means they are permanently off. I have done this, and only have my cup holders lit.
Those look super nice!
It’s a real shame Valencia chose to make the much needed design/ quality changes on their “luxury” series and not change the premier series. I’m not talking about upgraded features, just basic design changes. But I guess it’s all about the Benjamins.
Are you wanting them to provide a luxury edition for each series they offer?
These look gorgeous! I don't mind paying extra $$$ for quality. Gotta start saving for Xmas!
I love the updated chairs man. I like the fact that Valencia is listening to content creators and customers and making the requested changes. I am still loving my Tuscany's, beautiful chairs and amazing features.
I agree Barrett. Seems they are moving in the right direction
I'm not so sure that's a crazy high price considering the top of the line quality you get. The White Glove install is also a great service for reasonable money.
Velvet + Felt = Velt ... Made sense to me... 😅😉👍
Just to let you know I contacted Valencia support about one seat not retracting after 18 months. These guys were amazing.
Sent me new motor which was not the problem then a new switch which was the problem. Everything works great. Do not hesitate to contact support for any issues you have.

Really nice seats! It looks really comfortable bro!
I have absolutely LOVED my Valencia Tuscany seats over that last 2 years! Don’t think it’s worth upgrading for me to the luxury ones but great video nonetheless!………that matte leather though…….hmmmm🧐
In my dreams😌
The leather looks real nice on those new ones. Funny: Last video when you were sitting in them I was watching on my new iPad. I was like, “damn, look at the detail on this iPad.

Great video skills looks like a great review
0:43 "Full disclaimer, this video is not sponsored but valencia did send these seats to me for FREE for review".... LOOOOOL
Hi Theo. A sponsored video is when a company pays a content creator to make a video (like I’m doing with Perlisten). I have always been transparent when a company has provided a product for free or if a video is sponsored. Sadly this is not the case with many other content creators that are making similar content as I am.

*Velt,* the marriage of Velvet & Felt
Mike, do they sell them as separates? I don't want to be fighting over the arm rests.
If you’re talking about individual seats, you would have to contact them directly to see if they offer that
Great Seats
It’s good to see you’re home theater again
Short lived. I’m flying out tomorrow morning to Indiana to visit Perlisten HQ and do a Perlisten Home Theater Tour.
@@Youthman nice

Thanks Victor
These seats are awesome. For this price point being luxury would love heated seats. I do these some changes should be made to the premier series like the cup holder and LEDs. I think that would be great. Next time we purchase some new theater seats these will be it. Thanks as always.
Thanks Joe Valencia is continually improving their products so it would be great to see some of those features trickle down to other series as well
i would prefer heated and cooled cup holders my car as them and they are amazing
I’ve actually never heard of heated and cooled cup holders. Sounds fancy
How is the comfort? The most important thing in a seat after all… 😉 For this price point, it should be 10/10.
Nice review! Hopefully in my future some day
They have much less expensive ones as well.

It’s difficult to say when Klipsch will introduce a new series. I have only heard that RP8000F series. I really enjoyed them
@@Youthman okay thanks for you reply 😊
I am trying to figure out if my feet will hang off, so how tall are you? Then that would give me a good comparison. Also I noticed that someone asked you to rate this for comfort 1to10 and you did not respond, could you please answer this question for me. Thanks
I"m 5'11". As far as not responding to a a comment, keep in mind, I have 100,000 subscribers + many who aren't subscribers commenting on over 500+ videos on my channel. Impossible to see, much less respond to them all. I would give the Ultimate Luxury a 9 out of 10 in comfort. Love the softness of the leather. The only thing I would change is the mechanics of the head rest. The original Tuscany lifted up and then forward instead of just swiveling forward. But overall, I absolutely love them. Hope that helps.
Great review. I am interested in the new luxury series and want to buy a single one. Not sure how much they cost or can i easily place my feet on the floor without wearing shoes. I am about 5ft 7 Thanks !
For single orders, you would need to contact them directly to see if they can sell them as individuals.
Hi so I made a choice to get klipsch rp 8000f, I just wanted to know what hdmi cables are using for your AV separates and projectors. Its very difficult to choose from a variety of choice. There are too many out there and its difficult to pinpoint the best.
These have worked flawlessly for me ua-cam.com/video/-khK6cCq9Gk/v-deo.html
I have several 3’ cables between components and a 50’ running to my projector for up to 4K@60
@@Youthman Thanks for your help!
Hey youthman! I enjoy your videos. I have a question to ask regarding madvr. Would love to maybe see a video on this topic: what exactly is madvr and how does it compare to using the Panasonic 820/9000 with projector use? Trying to learn about the tone mapping but having a hard time wrapping my head around all the details.
Thanks!
👆👆👆 Actually I’m very new to MadVR so thank you Tristan for sharing your knowledge of it
@@keepingupwiththejones2933 dude, this info was great. So in a nut shell, MADvr does Dynamic (scene by scene/frame by frame) tone mapping and the Panasonic 820 does static? Also, currently running an epson 3020, but hope to upgrade to the rumored epson this year (4k pixel shift laser). Based on that upgrade, would MADvr be worth it or would the 820 do what I need to do? Not going down the Envy route... I aint got 7k to toss around. Ha.
@@Youthman We can learn together.
@@keepingupwiththejones2933 Oh gosh ! Can't believe I forgot to ask this one. Can MAdvr be used on a disc if you HTPC has a 4k bluray drive or do you have to rip the content to the HD?
@@keepingupwiththejones2933 amazing. Thank you so much for your help
Oh i get it free seats. I guess i would do the se
Any idea if you can order them in Europe?
You would have to check with Valencia as I’m not sure
These look nice. I would be alittle co concerned with the side buttons my hips always hit buttons in that position
These are very Touch Sensitive like the top controls on my Valencia Premiere Seats. You have to physically push them and you will hear the button click
Youth man can you feel the frame across your lower back when reclining in these seats? Thanks
I will have to check when I get back in town. Flying out to visit Perlisten HQ
Are those the ones I sat in there other day??
Why aren't these available as single seating??
Likely die to the cost of shipping. Isn’t worth it for them.
@@Youthman Hmmm...the Tuscany XL is and a couple of their competitors offer them single.
I didn’t realize they sell the Tuscany XL as a single. Good to know.
For that price they are asking for, is there any kind of warranty, on the materials or mechanical parts???
Is there any brand that doesn’t have a warranty?
@@Youthman just saying it would have been worth saying what it covers etc.
I don’t have the answer to that question.
I find the fact that you occasionally hit the control on your seat accidentally and cause the seat to recline unexpectedly, deeply upsetting. I had no idea life could be so harsh 😁.
Rough life eh?
@@Youthman Goodness me,yes.
Same
These seats are great. 18 months in and one seat doesn’t work on recline any more
Did you try unplugging it for a few seconds to see if it resets? If not, reach out to support.
@@Youthman yes sir ,tried this but didn’t work Thx
Reach out to their tech-support. Let me know what you find out
Mine must be a version between the two you have, my controls are on the arm rest, not the cup holder but I don't have the presets. The presets would have been nice but I think I can survive with what I have:-)
White glove has gone up! If I remember correctly I only paid $175 for it for all fourteen seats and they had to take them upstairs to the theater. It was definitely worth it, even at twice the price, would still be definitely worth it.
Wow! You are the perfect example of when white glove is worth it haha
@@Youthman Well worth it! And for a few dollars more on their tip, I got them to take my Altec A7 Voice of the Theater's up stairs.
For the price of these new seats there should of been way to dim the lights in these chairs. Why wouldn’t that not be built into these?
I am not familiar with any theater seats with dimmable LED’s. I have only seen On/Off
Audio advise sells seating With dimmable lights. Their revolution chair. How does that chair compare to the Tuscany?
I haven’t reviewed any of their seats
Will theater chairs from different venders be at MWAVE for review?
Currently, RowOne and Valencia will have seats at the show.
got a like and a sub for " what the hell is "VELT"...lol
🤣🤣🤣
not sponsored. But heres 12k in free seats
That is correct. If I get paid, it’s a sponsored video. If I receive free product, I always disclose it. Unfortunately not every content creator does that.
Why are theater seats better than a nice couch? I see the six seats, but who really sits in all the seats?
If you have a high end theater room that holds 18 people, 3 rows of 6 would work great. When I built my theater room 15 years ago, the only option for my was theater seats. If I want to sit on a couch, I can do that in my living room.
@@Youthman i’ve seem some great rooms that merge ht rooms and living rooms. Best of both worlds. Love ur latest vids and really like when u focus on equip rack components.
Depends on the esthetic you are trying to achieve and how far down the rabbit hole you want to go.
@@mephInc Definitely dude. While I only have a living room home cinema. If I was lucky enough to have a dedicated home cinema I would go different for the seating.
Individual seats with a nice unusual design, covered in a nice plus velvet fabric. Ones that look contemporary, not look like cinema seats.
Everyone has different tastes, some like the cinema chairs look. While some don't like it at all.
@@iampuzzleman282 Living room style seating just gives a nicer more homely vibe to a home cinema room.
My small living room is my cinema room lol, but I made it uncluttered. Stylish looking acoustic room treatments on the walls that blend into the room decor.
What about women in shorts sticking to the leather
I’m not sure. Wouldn’t men in shorts stick to it too?
@@Youthman you can tell a man to suck it up buttercup
Personally I have never stuck to any of my theater seats.
@@Youthman try not wearing clothes while cuddling with your lady. I feel I'm not supposed to say that to a former youth pastor. Repent or perish
We have 4 children. I’m pretty sure I know how that works.
Velt?? 🤣
Their “carbon fiber” trays are overpriced for what they are, wobbly junk in my opinion
Im sorry but i have to say ive noticed every youtube home theater site recommends the same tuscany chair, its getting kind of ridiculous, somebody must be getting paid, again sorry but its extremely obvious
Unlike a lot of content creators in this space, I always disclose my relationship with brands that I work with and whether a video is sponsored or not. Last I checked it’s actually a law. As stated in the video, Valencia sent these to me for review but the video was not sponsored. I do have some sponsored videos I will be doing with them as they are flying me to Canada later this year to do a sponsored Home Theater Tour that features their products. Thanks for watching
It’s unfortunate that you are frustrated that content creators get paid for their work and sharing products that we feel our audience may be interested in.
Regardless of whether you consider it a sponsored video or not is irrelevant. It is clear in the video that I received it for free. If that somehow offends you and is annoying, not much I can do about that.
Out of curiosity, would feel better if they sent them to me to review, to spent 3 days filming and editing with over $7,500 of my own camera and lighting gear and a $2,500 custom PC that I built to create a review sharing my experience and what I like and dislike about it that is then placed in front of 90,000 subscribers that took me 4 years to develop that are interested in Home Theater for me to then box it all back up, and ship it back to Valencia and enjoy $188 from Adsense on the video (that’s actually how much I’ve made off the first Tuscany Review I did two years ago).
Just a guess but if I went to your job, I bet somebody was getting paid. I sure hope one of them is you. 😉
Be blessed
I guess tuscany such and such is just advertising really hard because its the only home theater seat i see reviews for, but they must be giod even for the price ❤
Remember the Yellow Pages and banner ads on websites? Those no longer work. Brands that are growing the fastest are using social media to find new customers. Whether they are creating their own content or they are placing their products into the hands of content creators to share their experience with it. Marketing hasn’t changed. The method has.
Thanks for another great review, Youthman!
So you gonna treat me? I'm a stay at home dad so that type of cash I don't have
I got u
@@Youthman lol I wish ha ty bro ohh I'll txt you pics of my setup I emailed you on your site with all the info ;)
A few of questions:
How much space did you leave between the first and second row so that they can both be fully extended and not bother each other?
How much taller is the second row compared to the first so that the second row can see the screen perfectly?
At what height does your screen begin?
UNDERSTANDING THE PROS & CONS OF PERFORATED LEATHER.’
The Valencia, perforated leather seats, need some consideration before buying because they may not be for everyone!
PROS
Airflow - These seats allow air to pass through them, which helps to keep you cool.
Sound absorption - The holes help to absorb sound waves.
Comfortable - The seats are very comfortable, which means they are easy to sit on. They also come with a high backrest, which relieves pain and discomfort.
Luxurious - The material offers a tactile sensation, meaning that it feels luxurious and smooth. This makes it an ideal choice for people who value style over practicality.
Modern look - The seats offer a modern and stylish look.
CONS
Wrinkles - Wrinkles are common when using perforated leather seats because the material tends to stretch out more than regular leather. This means that the seats need to be maintained and taken care of.
Small debris - The holes allow food and other debris to penetrate the seat’s interior. This could lead to stains and odors.
Damage - If the seats get damaged, then the entire seat needs replacing. Therefore, make sure that you buy only quality products.
Less durable - The material is less durable than regular leather, which means that it requires proper maintenance. It should be cleaned regularly to prevent dirt buildup.
Costly - The seats tend to be expensive.
To start off, I love the new seats and think they look great, and for many they will be perfect, just don’t spill anything on them.
1st Porous Leather Is Not Water Resistant or Waterproof.
Porous leather takes fine leather and perforates 50% of it with holes, which deteriorates it's durability.
It basically turns your 100% waterproof Italian Leather protective barrier, into a screen.
Everything from pet & human dandruff to urine and beer will be permanently imbedded in the cushions through these holes, and there is no getting out the odors, or stains.
Because of the breakdown Perforated leather causes, it requires more work to keep it in good shape.
2nd These kinds of seats are made for cars, not homes for a reason.
Why? Because cars are subject to constant weather conditions, that allows quicker drying, and helps keep the smell, mold, and bacteria down.
3rd Since many home theaters are in basements, there can be high moisture, and humidity levels
The basement moisture in combination of dust, liquid & food, pet dander, sweat, pet & baby urine, baby formula, or breast milk.
In time, in a damp environment, bacteria, and mold can build up making your beautiful recliner very unhealthy.
Due to the holes created on perforated leather seats, it tends to trap dirt within it and will require a lot of effort to keep it clean and conditioned.
4th Not Pet Friendly - With the holes cats and dogs that like to scratch can get their claws stuck in the holes, and if the urinate forget getting the order out.
Look It's really important for consumers to know all the facts of the products they purchase, to allow them to make a conscious choice that their selection is one that meets all their needs and expectations.
