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.

Just enough can enhance the experience and too much can lead you to turn on the TV or fall asleep. I always wondered why some rooms at audio shows serve alcohol. Was it for the jaded reviewers, looking for respite or a softening of sorts for the novices? All the best, Nonoise

Harder to hear details after I've had a few. I brought this up on another forum and it was not well received by some. Too sensitive a subject I guess.
