An insulated canopy on your tank should help. I briefly had 2 boxes running on my 400 and could barely hear them standing in front of the tank.

I'm not sure running a insulated canopy with 3ea 400w HQI's in it would be a great idea.

i don't want to further threadjack but i will say a canopy at all will help... doesn't have to be insulated. plus you're going to face higher temps just by having the canopy.
