Exactly. An echo chamber is a room designed to create an echo – usually as an effect in an audio recording or a film. But it has a modern use which describes a situation where people only hear, see or read opinions they agree with.
I see. Just like an echo, they only hear the same thing they've just said. 表达“echo chamber”原本指的是“录音时为制造回声效果而建立的回音室”。但现在,我们多用它来比喻“人际交流过程中,只承认或接受与自己的观点相近的回应”。

That's right. Let's hear some more examples of ‘echo chamber’ used this way.
