Yep!, it does you good to get out more .. the sounds I've heard this
Proms season bear little resemblance to what I expect to hear at home
being more distant in overall balance...

Which of course depends hugely on where you are sitting in the concert hall
relative to the recording mics, and the acoustics of the concert hall itself
relative to your listening room. Not to mention the performance of your
speakers, and the ability of the recording engineer.
