toilet flushing causes noise in sink and shower

Tags: Plumbing
After installation of a new toilet and sink, we can now hear the flushing sound in the pipes of both the sink and in the drain of the shower. Is there a way to prevent this?

Did you just replace the fixtures on existing roughing or replace the soil and drain lines also?

We put in a new toilet and sink in the bathroom, but used existing lines. Locations of the fixtures are the same as before. Thanks for answering!

Is this new toilet pressure assisted or gravity type?

Are the valves fully open and is the toilet refill a fluidmaster 400A
