Best Answer

Sound proofing works by having alternating layers of material and air that deaden the sound waves as they transfer through each layer. "Soft" materials work well because vibrations/sound waves don't transfer through them as easily. If glass is to be used it needs to be double paned with a vacuum barrier between the two panes
