I'm planning to rehab a home, all windows will be replaced. Any advice on chosing the brand or type of new windows.

For soundproofing, thicker glass and triple ply construction is better. A feew window companies offer insulated glass that has two cavities between three panes instead of the usual one cavity between two panes, I think Pella is one.

Also, they should be wood frames instead of metal or vinyl. The absorbant mass of the wood will help

Excellence is its own reward!
