Sound designer, huh?

If I wanted to build a "sound-box" to compare the loudness of various objects as they strike a metal plate / compare how well walls of different materials block a certain noise, should I aim to make an echo chamber or an anechoic chamber?

Also, who chose the word "anechoic," because I think they secretly enjoy people accidentally saying "anti-echoic."
