best concert venue

.
Carnegie and then Concertgebouw (in that order) would be my two favorites.
.
Both provide magical sonics and such a great aura of history.
.

Sheldon Hall in St. Louis, MO. About 400 capacity and used also as a recording studio as the acoustics are that good.

for outdoors, the amphitheater in Jacksonville, oregon. for indoors, the arlene schnitzer hall on portland, oregon.

For Rock Music: Lenny Kravitz, Dave Matthews & Blues Traveler at The Gorge at George in Washington...incredible outdoor venue with sweeping sloped lawns and gorgeous western views over the Columbia River Gorge, The Dead at Shoreline Ampitheater in California...best sound for them out of 6 different venues (mutiple times each venue)

For Classical/Opera: The Santa Fe Open Air Opera House in New Mexico...I was blown away...maybe having 11th row center spoiled me, but in my mind it was better than any classical I have heard at the new Disney Hall in LA although the seats there aren't nearly as good...still a nice sound at Disney Hall and it is obvious that a TON of attention to accoustical detail went into the construction. I can't wait to hear the organ there it is the wildest looking thing I have ever seen.

I hear Red Rocks in Colorado is pretty cool...havent been there yet though.
