Tough row to hoe: My “minhag” (reading of the halacha)is the chazoras hashatz has to be heard mila bmila. I also am mkubal to do kiddush b4 hatzos, and I lain for a very lebedik sleepyhead minyan starting 10:30-11:00. First day sneaked into a very exclusive netz minyan at go’al Yisrael, left b4 hazora as I know them to sing too much over the shatz. Longish break, lained and did musaf with the sleepyheads who are mu’ad to mess up the chazoras hashatz. Kiddush on time bit b4 hatzos. Second day, in search of tekiot lachash. Found “Sefardi Avreichim” netz. Beautiful, every word, even when they shout out stuff, he waits and then says. Piyyutim all before, after, or in kadish tiskabel. Oops, he didn’t say Modim out loud. Stayed for kriya (Morracan) and musaf with tekiot, left before kedusha (slow davener)and based on previous performance, leined by the sleepyheads, home to do some tekiot my way, and kidush about hatzos. This is in Jerusalem. Next year maybe I will try the Yekkes.
