Soundproof curtains, also more accurately called noise-reducing or acoustic curtains, offer a practical, non-invasive solution for mitigating unwanted sound, particularly through windows. While they seldom provide true "soundproofing" (like a solid wall), their effectiveness lies in using dense, heavy, and often multi-layered fabrics that absorb sound energy and act as a physical barrier. They are most successful at reducing high and mid-frequency noises like traffic or conversation, and their performance is significantly boosted when they cover the entire window frame and maintain a tight seal to prevent sound leakage, making them a popular and relatively affordable option for improving sleep, concentration, and overall room acoustics in noisy urban or residential environments.
