[QUOTE="LIVESOUND, post: 1157847, member: 778"] Standard 6.5 mm UV resistant laminated glass is a good sound insulator. The special sound proof glasses are the same thing but with a thicker vinyl interlayers. Double glazing with laminated glass rather than the usual sheet or toughened glasses will provide excellent sound attenuation. You can mix the glasses by say having laminated in the outer half and normal sheet (if permitted in terms of the safety regulations) in the inner half to save cost. For living and bedroom spaces I would always recommend laminated in the outer panes and sheet or toughened glasses on the inside to benefit security and UV control. Double glazing with laminated inside and out will insulate as well as a 230 mm plastered brick wall. The weakest link from a sound point of view is then the ceiling and roof. [/QUOTE]
