In my experience, ventialtion is something that is very dangerous to play
arround with. It's also something that people who are good with electronics
are usually bad at.

If you want to do this sort of thing, you ought to do some experiments and
carefully monitor the temperature in the enclosure, not forgetting that
reduced fan speed gives reduced air flow which might mean that cool air is
not reaching everywhere that it was previously.

I would go for bigger fans which can go slower and produce less noise, but
still provide the same air flow.

All the best...Mike
