Hi, My sense is that to cut the sound going in and out of windows something solid would do better than foam. You might be able to make some sort of interior shutters. Then you could open them to see in and out and close them to reduce the noise. Another possibility is to use some of the 2-3 inch thick construction foam used to insulate walls in new houses. Cut it to just fit loosely in the window opening and put a soft weatherstripping foam around the edge to make it fit snugly. You can cover it with fabric to make it more spouse friendly. Put in it to cut the sound, remove it and stow it out of sight when not needed.

Then again you could just brick up the windows. Very Happy


Good Listening
Bruce
