Does alcohol impair appreciation of sound?


Curious to know how alcohol effects other audiogon members when they are listening to music. For me, seems the frequencies become dull and I find myself wanting to mess around with the controls.

Drinking, makes you turn the volume up a lot higher, than when your not drinking. That just proves it de sensitizes you.   Hey that’s why I have Dynaudios...they love to be turned up loud! And let me tell you something .....with a great system it does not matter if your drunk (not passed out drunk), stoned, or sober, you still hear and feel, everything!

Ok- I just finished my second glass of some nice red wine, and the music is sounding fantastic right now!

Sure it does, just like when you were a horny young stud half tanked at the local at closing time, anything looked good.
