I don't play oboe, but I love its sound(if its a good player). I play saxophone mainly, and flute is my next favorite. I also play the cello pretty well, I love its rich, mesmerizing sound.

yeah, oboe can be really loud, especially when the player isn't that great... but even then. Why do u think they only need 1-3 oboes in a symphony?

yeah, any more and you would need more strings to blend with them.

At our school we had to try out to play oboe. Our director could only handle one oboe, due to the "excessive cat sounding noises".
