Quite smart idea, not for throttling when the fans are heard, but SPEEDING THEM UP while they are NOT heard, based on the noise floor of the current environment.

This, combined with an assessment how much of the environment the user currently hears (i.e. maybe he is watching a movie), could provide a lot of headroom for additional cooling without bothering the user.
