"Sorry to hear the seating at Disney Hall isn't better or the sound (which is FAR more important)."

That's certainly not true for everybody. I'm 6'1" with pretty broad shoulders, have probably been 65-70 times since it opened and I have no problem sitting very comfortably in all but one section (the Terrace section -- and that's perfectly tolerable). I don't know if this is related to being comfortable but I also have no problem sitting still for two hours.

I find the sound to occasionaly tilt towards the bright side a touch but mostly it's a visceral aural experience for me with great detail, nuance, balance and tone. And that's not because I'm somehow afraid of saying otherwise (nor is it for the many other people I know who feel similarly).

I find the Orchestra East and West seats, from the stage edge out and from rows A-E to have the best sound -- that's we're my subscription seats are now.

Check it out. I think you'll like it.

I also think the hall itself is one of the most beautiful I've ever been in. I wouldn;t know where to start in comparing it sound wise to the Concertgebouw but I've thoroughly enjoyed seeing and hearing concerts in both places.
