dBA (noise) question

OK, lets say I have a device that has fans and the decibel level is 66.

If I replace the current fans with two rated at 36 dBA what's worst case total dBA.

In theory if they are in sync I could end up with 72 dBA total?

Or theoretically I could hang a fan speed controller on one and get them out of phase so they cancel each other out?

Educamate me.
