I would either get quieter fans or switch to watercooling.... if you want to leave the fans in and don't want to go out and get 6 more quiet fans then I would get sound dampenning mats. "Asakusa," or something like that (sound/vibration absorption mats) can also be bought at www.bestbyte.net! good luck! :)
 
cheap mousmats as sound dampeners sounds like a viable and simple option- with 9 fans, maybe you should put some rubber washers/gromets between your screws and your case- this reduces vibrations and some people think it could take a few DBa off your overall noise- you just need to find a place that sells them small enough for case fans.
 
yeah. mine has 3 fans total. hehe. the little p.o.s on my gf4 mx (which i think is dieing BTW), a 92mm on my volcano and 1 80mm exaust fan. thats it hehe. check out my sig
 
hey james... did u include your PSU fan?? ive only got 4fans inside my case and its dead quiet- but my PSU is REALLY noisy when it gets too hot- maybe i should keep it at a lower setting but i dont know how (and dont really care)
