Your answer depends on what you want to experience during an Opera performance.

You can sit in the front row if you choose feel your body reverberate with the orchestra and singers' music; you can sit on the main floor if you like those acoustics and the view is acceptable from your seat; you can sit in the tiers if you prefer that perspective; or you can sit in the top rows if you prefer that experience.

Best is a judgement and you are the judge.
