Praying in a Conservative synagogue

The Rav Name: Rabbi Boaz Yurkowitz

Where I live there is only a Conservative synagogue, is it permissible for me to davven there and to hear the Torah reading when they are not using a microphone?

The Rebbe Rayatz writes that a person who says Amen in a Reform synagogue adds life to the Husks of Impurity, (impure forces in the world.) A Conservative synagogue is no different.
