Sound passes through openings by two routes: through the pane itself, and through gaps. Gaps are the dominant route, which is why a tiny unsealed path can undo an otherwise well-specified installation.
acoustics decision path for Condensation in Wimborne
Where the pane is the route, asymmetric glass — two panes of different thickness — outperforms matched panes, because the two thicknesses resonate at different frequencies and cancel rather than reinforce each other. Cavity width and laminated interlayers do the rest.

Traffic noise is low-frequency and stubborn; voices and birdsong are higher and easier to attenuate. Being realistic about which one is bothering you decides whether glass, seals or something structural is the sensible spend.
