That would be painfully quiet...maddening. I could barely spend a few minutes in an anechoic chamber. I could hear my lungs filling/emptying, my blood flowing, and my heartbeat sounded like a bass drum. It was not pleasant.

Oh wow, you've actually tried one of those? How and where? I want to try one, despite it being uncomfortably disturbing lol.

Well i am an automation systems engineer and was installing and wiring a fixture in an anechoic chamber for our client to do characterization of a micro electronic microphone (MEM). It was a small chamber...just large enough for 1 person to be inside. The claustrophobia coupled with the intense pressure of complete silence was disturbing to say the least. I kept having to take breaks just to calm down. It was an experience, but not one i would recommend.
