In one of my shower stalls, I have a hot and a cold water valve. Sometimes when I have the values opened to about 1/3 or capacity each, I hear this loud, vibrating noise behind the tile (where the pipes and the valves are). If I open one of the valves more fully, the noise goes away. Any ideas on what might be causing this? Thanks in advance.

Worn valve or pipes not properly fixed, or a combination of both. Cool
