- Balcony E ($71): 3 rows closer than G with similar center positioning - best dollar-to-view ratio
- Dress Circle FF ($73): Closer to stage but side-angle view - ideal if you prefer proximity over perfect center alignment
Sweet Spot Tickets ($100-$150)
- Dress Circle BB ($76): Front of Dress Circle with direct sightlines to orchestra - minimal obstruction from railings
- Parquet CC ($154): Main floor seating with excellent acoustics - about 20 rows back from stage
- Second Tier GA ($76): Elevated side boxes with unique angled perspective - good for watching conductor's work
Higher Tier Options ($150-$250)

Premium/Last-Minute Options
- Parquet Center CC ($718): Absolute best acoustics in the house - center of the "violin sweet spot"
- Dress Circle GG ($141): Last-minute center Dress Circle seats - excellent late-availability option
View Differences by Section
- Balcony: Steep vertical angle (rows A-Q) - higher rows may feel distant but have pristine acoustics
- Dress Circle: Shallow balcony (rows AA-GG) - closer visual but partial view obstructions in rear rows
- Parquet: Flat floor seating (rows AA-EE) - best for seeing bow work but sound varies by row
- Tier Boxes: Side perspectives (GA boxes) - intimate feel but asymmetrical orchestra view
Expert Recommendations
- For budget-conscious buyers: Balcony E ($71) offers 90% of the acoustic quality at 30% of premium seat prices
- Best mid-range: Dress Circle BB ($76) provides ideal balance of view and sound
- Splurge-worthy: Parquet Center CC seats are worth it for serious classical enthusiasts - you'll hear individual instruments with stunning clarity

Acoustic Notes
The Met Orchestra performs without amplification. Balcony seats (especially center sections) often provide superior sound quality compared to more expensive main floor seats due to Carnegie Hall's legendary vertical sound projection design.
