The world's quietest room is called an anechoic chamber, which means there is no echo as it absorbs sound. A typical quiet room you sleep in at night measures about 30 decibels. Orfield Labs uses the room to test products, including switches that go on car dashboards and the sound an LED display makes on a cell phone to make sure they're not too loud.
