I wouldn't worry as stated in previous answers above. I recommend the pleated shades in lieu of the drapes for acoustic absorbsion. I have them and they work great.
Sound loss/ windows?
I'm building a listening room and trying to balance accoustic properties, sound isolation and ambience. I would like to have three 5'x3'windows but am worried about the sound transimission through the windows bugging the neighbors. My room is 26 x 15 over a garage. The nearest neighbor is a good 75 feet away, but I do like to crank it up, and sometimes jam along with my guitar, well over 100db.
I thought about adding heavy drapes for those "loud" moments. Anybody know how that much window space might affect both internal accoustics and sound transmission?
Thanks
