I would not have attended, or considered attending, the VPO concerts at Zellerbach had I known they were using electronic enhancement of the live sound.
I passed on the opportunity to hear the VPO under Bernstein at Concord Pavillion in 1987, for the same reason.
I will not pay hundreds of dollars to hear a PA system, no matter how sophisticated.
