Fun:
Just wanted to write a review on this product for people browsing for gaming chairs and want to know what this product is like.
For easy reading I'll give you what I think are the pros and cons, these are just my opinions your experience may differ,
Pros:
- On my experience fast delivery, considering the time frame given
- Simple assembly although I'd recommend assembling it in location because it is very heavy
- Very comfortable, I spend a decent amount of time playing video games and it holds up well
- Excellent gaming experience, If you link it up to your gaming system (ps3, Xbox 360 etc), turn up the Bass, vibrations, and surround volume up its like your in the game! So much better than using just the television speakers
- price, it may seem a lot but everywhere else this same chair is [...] plus, and considering the price you'd pay for a home cinema system its peanuts
- looks cool
As you can see from the pros, I really like this chair but their were a couple of cons
Cons:
- very heavy, shouldnt be a huge problem, just make sure you have a safe way of moving it
- one piece missing, a female to female adaptor, however I ordered one off Amazon for a couple of pound and it came the next day, so didn't really bother me
- not great on a hot day, the material is a leather look, not real leather and it doesnt breathe at all, so you might be peeling yourself off the seat on a hot day!
- I havent tried the wireless so I cant comment, but if your not keen on trailing wires that may be a problem, doesnt bother me though
- more of a warning than a con, turn the bass, volume and vibrations off when your unplugging the Aux cable that connects music devices, else your back will be tingling for ages!
Cant think of anything else at the moment, overall very good buy and would vastly enhance any gaming or movie experience.

Fun:
I bought the chair new about a year ago and many problems have appeared in that time;
- It developed squeaks about a month after purchase, so i tightened every possible nut and bolt. It prevents the squeak for about a day and then it starts squeaking again. From there it got worse and worse, the squeak got louder and unpreventable.
- A week or so on it started to 'rock' as if the stand was loose even though it was tight on as possible. Its still like that even now.
- The speakers cant handle loud audio, they crackle to the vocals of song if played loud, the leg speakers are fakes and the 'subwoofer' is more of a violent vibration on your spine.
- The armrests are rock hard.. not comfy at all.
- If sat in this chair for a long period of time my back starts aching.
This chair does the job but its overpriced and with all the problems that I've got with it I wouldn't recommend it.
I invested in some Logitech Z623 speakers and am currently looking for a new full leather office chair to replace it. I Apologise that this review is so negative but I think its right for future buyers to know what they might end up with. Not everyone will agree on this but this is my experience with the X-Rocker Pro.

Fun:
Bought this chair and was concerned it may look ridiculous in my average styled living room, but it fits in nicely. Great sharp design, very comfy and brilliant sound and performance.
Easy to assemble and set up. The wireless control is based on a 3 band basis and is simple to use. The chair does need to be plugged into the mains however - therefore not 100% wire free. The batteries (2 x AAA) on the wireless transponder that links to your consol etc do run out if you leave it on so.....switch it off when not in use!!.
Can sit in it for hours and works great with my PS3, Surround sound TV, ipod touch etc..... only cons are that it is a little heavy to move around for positioning in front of the tv when gaming. As well as the fact the chair needs to be plugged into mains. Arms are permanently fixed and perhaps in future editions it would be a good option to have folding arms. Not all speakers work/are supposed to work (the ones to the front of the seat are for cosmetic purposes only).
All said and done I give it 5 stars based on price, value, sound quality, fun and pure enjoyment. X Rocker have made a good good value for money gaming chair here.
