Sat front row at the symphony...

@hilde45 I agree, the lines are fuzzy. What's advice to one person may be insult to another.

the origin of the symphony's layout is the Greek amphitheater. A pretty amazing and efficient design, with the aim for the best acoustics in every seat in the house. The main difference was that it was open air. So, the front row shouldn't be worse, if it was properly built.

I thought of the movies when I read this post. Of course the screen in your face is a very different story than the acoustics.

And now I read 3 articles about what’s the best seat at Heinz Hall! (How useful) Thanks everyone :)

Back to work...

@hilde45 there is a way to be critical and constructive not condescending. Many of these comments however have the "I have the tickets to the best seats, let me lecture you how wrong you are" vibe. Of course you can't prove intent so you can always say that I am just imagining the vibe.

But it seems to be in so many posts: OP asks "how is A with B" and the answer is "oh, no, forget it, you need C" 

what mics? You mean there are speakers? It's not pure acoustic?

that orgasm story has not been verified, it's just clickbait
