List of 8 Best Gaming Seats with Speakers
1. X Rocker 5171101 Drift
X Rocker 5171101 Drift is one of the most affordable gaming chairs for console on the market. Yet it doesn’t lose out on overall quality too much. At its price bracket it’s the most value you can get. 5171101 is mostly aimed at small or average build people. And it does perform very well for the price you pay.
Great / Has 2 speakers and a subwoofer that sound fairly good! Overall performance is just as expected. Fairly healthy, although not ergonomically designed. It’s comfortable if you fit it.
Not so Great / The quality of parts & materials used in the chair could be better. Longevity could use some work. A big person won’t feel very comfortable.
Overall / For the price you just couldn’t ask for much more. It’s balanced so it remains affordable and yet still gives the user a taste of just how fun X Rockers can be. Definitely a worthy buy!
2. X Rocker 5142201 Commander
5142201 Commander is the most affordable seat with speakers and a pedestal. It performs really well for its price and is more comfortable than other cheaper chairs. It’s a great bang for the buck and its performance proves it true.
Great / Also has 2 speakers and a sub that sound pretty good. Overall performance is better than expected. Quite healthy, designed ergonomically. Seat, itself lasts quite long. Fairly comfortable for people who fit it.
Not so Great / Cleaning cover materials can be tedious. Parts are not of top quality. Parts like armrests can’t handle much load. Don’t expect it to last many years if you are a serious gamer.
Overall / Just like the model above it is balanced all around to remain affordable and get you a taste on just how immersive X Rockers can be. It doesn’t hurt your wallet much and is worth every penny. Perfect as a gift for someone else or yourself.
3. X Rocker 5143601
X Rocker 5143601 is similar to Drift model above expect it is a bit wider and a bit more comfortable. It’s still very affordable and it also offers some extra quality too compared to other affordable models. This one is also designed for users of small and average and slightly above average builds. The value for the price is just perfect and therefore it definitely deserves a place in this list.
Great / 2 speakers and a sub-woofer that sound fairly good. The overall performance is also pretty good. The quality of materials and parts is better than expected. Holds up fine. Cleaning it is very easy. Has armrests and is much more comfortable in general compared to others at / below this price range. Is healthy enough.
Not so Great / Won’t last many years under stress.
Overall / Hard to find any real cons for the price. Perfectly balanced and even more comfortable, of better quality than chairs at around this price bracket. Ideal affordable video game chair with speakers that you can feel safe buying. If you need a more reliable yet affordable buy that fits even adults, this is it!
4. X Rocker 5172801 Ace Floor Gaming Chair
Ace 5172801 is a more recent version of seats with speakers. It is the cheapest one with 2 speakers, a sub AND a Bluetooth system. Which means you can pair it with other Bluetooth devices (phones, iPads etc.) with sound output and play it from your chair. Aside from this function that everyone seem to love so much, it doesn’t lose out on its overall quality either. Ace is made for people of average and above average builds.
Great / Has a Bluetooth 2.1 sound surround system with a sub-woofer that sound more than okay. All-around performance is quite good. Quality is better than expected for the price. Longevity is okay but not something to write home about. Healthy enough, just as previous models. Is really comfortable if you fit it.
Not so Great / Cleaning can be tedious. Unlikely to last many years.
Overall / The most affordable Bluetooth model that doesn’t skim on overall quality. Gives you a taste of rockers’ capabilities for a fairly low price. A great choice for those looking to buy a safe, yet cheap floor, Bluetooth model for activities besides gaming.
5. X Rocker 5172601 Surge with Bluetooth
5172601 Surge is another fairly affordable gaming chair with speakers and Bluetooth. It is the older model of Ace above, except it doesn’t have armrests, thus – less comfortable. It is slightly more expensive too. I decided to add it to this list in case the above isn’t available (as is often the case). Overall, however it is just as good as ace. It has 2 speaker and a sub system with Bluetooth that you can pair with other devices. Meaning you can connect it with your phone or iPad to play music through your seat.
Great / Bluetooth 2.1 sound system with a sub which sound pretty good. The performance is also pretty good. Quality as expected for the price. Lasts well, but not extraordinarily sturdy. Fairly healthy. Cleaning is easy.
Not so Great / Could have armrests for added comfort. The price should be lowered a few bucks.
Overall / If you are looking for the most affordable video game chair and can’t find Ace model above, I would immediately turn to Surge. It doesn’t have armrests and is a bit more expensive but still a great Rocker to enjoy activities besides gaming.
6. X Rocker 5127401 with Pedestal
X Rocker 5127401 is the most comfortable and probably most healthy seat with pedestal in middle price range for rockers. The model is made for above average people and has a good value for the price.
Great / Quite sturdy. The overall performance is quite good. It doesn’t lack quality and lives a fairly long life given that you are not too big. It is very comfortable for a chair this price. Swiveling feature. Really healthy, designed ergonomically. Easy to take care of.
Not so Great / Doesn’t have Bluetooth what is unusual at this price. Materials and parts used do not seem extremely durable.
Overall / The quality, performance and longevity are not something to surprise someone with. However, this chair’s selling points are comfort, capacity and healthiness. You can use it for longer continuous sessions without getting tired. Handles adults as well as young ones and is a flexible chair all around.
7. X Rocker 51259 Pro H3 for Floor
If you are looking for every feature a Rocker can offer this model is exactly that. It has pretty much everything to enjoy your games and your leisure time to the fullest. Except it’s made for people of small or average builds.

Overall comfort for fitting users is great. Has padded armrests for additional comfort. Really healthy and comfortable for longer periods of use. Easy to clean. Has extra vibration motors for added immersion.
Not so Great / Armrests don’t flip out of the way, limiting capacity of the seat. Unlikely to hand much straining if you are really heavy. Doesn’t fit big people.
Overall / It has everything you could possibly want from a seat with speakers. The value you get for the buck you pay is really, really good. Only downside is that big people won’t get to enjoy this chair. Best one for someone looking to experience “Rocker” chairs’ full potential!
8. X Rocker 5125401
This X Rocker model is made for heavier and bigger people. It does not have 4 speaker surround system, however the overall quality is as good as “Rocker” chairs come. And it has all most functions necessary to enjoy your gaming or relaxing time.

Quality is best there is as far as rockers go. Does have a long life if you treat it with care. Ergonomically designed – very healthy. Really comfortable for most people.
Not so Great / Value for the price could be better. No vibration motor and extra features that increase immersion. Rustling a lot might loosen up the stitching over some time.
Overall / If you are a big person this is really your only choice. The overall quality is really good for the price, all though the cost could be lowered some. Best for someone big and looking for comfort and ergonomic design.
Gaming chair compatibility with PS4, XBOX One and other recent consoles.
Most people are often worried about whether their chair is going to be comfortable with most recent consoles like PS4, Wii or XBOX One. And not for no good reason. While some of the recent chairs are no trouble connecting the wireless system to, others are a bit more complicated.
To answer it in a simple manner – yes. Even when it is not directly compatible with your console it will be with your TV that the console in question is connected to. And even if your TV doesn’t have RCA outputs, you can buy an HDMI to HDMI + SPDIF + RCA L/R Converter that will make sure your chairs do indeed ROCK… often unlike my sense of humor.
In details – whether it is a wireless audio system or not, it will be using cables that most of the time can be used to connect to your TV either for wireless transmitter or direct connection. Meaning that there are more than one ways to get the sound flowing to your fresh buy. You can check this video out to see how you can connect your chair to some of the recent consoles:
The cables are included with the package of your buy. However, in case the audio system isn’t wireless, you might run out of cable. Of course, you can always buy an additional cable adapter to make it longer. But to save yourself some trouble, you should check out the product description for the cables length if stated.
Things to consider before buying.
If you want to get a seat that works for you as you expect it to there a few things to ponder about before you make any purchase:
- Affordability
- Sound & Immersive Experience / Performance
- User Size
- Quality & Longevity
- Comfort
- Healthiness
- Portability
- Value versus Price
- Buyers’ Ratings
Affordability
If you are on a budget you will have to be decisive about what you want to get for your money. There are a few chairs that have a really good overall quality despite being pretty affordable. However, some are still more expensive than the others. In any case you will have to make sacrifices. It’s important that you don’t sacrifice comfort and immersion features for general quality and longevity.
Sound & Immersive Experience / Performance
Performance for a chair is quite important. If it doesn’t perform well at all, it might be worth thinking over. It’s not the most important thing in a chair but it does describe how it sounds, how immersive it is and how all the functions perform.
User Size
If you are too big or too small, the chair won’t be comfortable for you or maybe you won’t even fit.
In the worst case it will break down from too much stress. You must know the size of the user and the recommended user size for the chair for it all too work out as it should.
Quality & Longevity
Needless to say, the quality describes quality. If a product doesn’t have it you will not be enjoying your bought product for a long time. No matter how many neat functions it has or how cool it looks, this is the only thing you absolutely mustn’t overlook.
As for longevity, it describes how long of a life it usually has. It may differ depending on how well you take care of it, especially if it is covered in synthetic leather, nonetheless it can usually be described as a constant rather than variable.
Comfort
Comfort is clearly necessary for a chair. Same is true for rockers. You can usually find out how comfortable a chair is by taking a look at buyers’ (who actually fit the recommend user size) reviews.
Healthiness
In our modern days, it is better if your chairs are healthy too. And by healthy in this case I’m referring to ergonomic design. If you don’t know what ergonomic design is, to put it simply, it’s a design that makes you sit in a correct position and supports your natural body angles. There’s usually more to it than that, like adjustable armrests and similar features, but to not make it too long just consider it healthiness factor. The healthier it is, the more comfortable it will be to use it for longer periods of continuous use.
Since seats with speakers are typically not very adjustable, it is really good if you are within the recommended user size. You will be making sure you fit all the curves correctly. Same reason why some people say rockers aren’t comfortable, while it is actually comfortable for everyone besides them.
Portability
Portability is really self-explanatory. How easy it is to move or store. Although not as necessary, still a good metric to take a look at. Especially if you have limited space or are on the move often.
Value / Price
Value for the price is a rating I use in addition to my “Overall Rating”. Some reviewers use it as their main rating, however not in my case. What it does is weights all the chairs strengths and weaknesses against the price and converts it into numbers compared to other prices on the market.
It might seem a little complicated, but that describes how much of a bang it is for the buck.
Buyers’ Ratings
While often biased, buyers’ ratings can give you a good idea of what to expect from a product. Although most people often use it as a main rating for their final decision, it should only be used as complimentary information at best. Still… necessary to take a look at.
Top Gaming Seat with Speakers & Bluetooth
If you are not really up to choosing one over the other… do not have strict preferences… or you’d like buy a gaming chair as a gift for someone – you can safely turn to X Rocker 51259 Pro Series.
