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.

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.

Multitasking, a great way to knock off two hobbies simultaneously. So much for audiophilia.

As much as you may want to, better wait til tomorrow.
