Good Materials for Curtains


Has anyone made heavy curtains specifically to add absorbance to a room, and (of course) to block the reflections of glass? If so, what materials did you use. This is such a simple and common acoustical technique, yet I can find little written about what types of fabric (etc) are best. Thanks for your experienced suggestions.

If I may, I know the curtains won't soundproof. but why the companies claim that they're making soundproof curtains https://www.geekwrapped.com/guides/best-soundproof-curtains see reviews on them at the first time. 

It might knock down a bit of the upper frequencies but the mids and low end will go right through it.
These curtains are meant to block outside noise more than provide a sound treatment for a room. Probably will do both, however.
