This whole concept of the sound of the instrument "coming from closer to the reed" or "coming from lower in the instrument" to me seems to be related to how the bore is built. Lorees are built to amplify vibrations and enlarge them from everywhere, even in the undercutting, so the vibrations would be resonating out of the top joint as well as the bottom joint, bell, and out the bottom of the instruments. Other instruments such as Marigaux's tend to deaden the sound up top and enlarge the vibrations from down below. This would explain your reasoning as to why the sound feels like its coming from different places from the oboe.
If you every get a ton of oboes from different makers, switch top joints around with bottom joints, bells with different makes and models. Sometimes they fit, sometimes they don't. Sometimes you need to put the top joints on so the bridge keys don't connect and only play D major, other times you need to put scotch tape/cigarette paper in the sockets so that the different joints hold together. You can learn a lot about the design of each instrument.
