Have you bled the radiators?
When a system is new (or even just refilled) there are often lots of pockets of air trapped in it, which gradually make their way through pipes (which is normally what the noises are) into the radiators (or any other high point in the system) - bleeding the air out should make the system run better, and hopefully reduce the noise (although I admit if it's really bad then I'd have thought it's unlikely to be air unless there's a faulty automatic bleed valve or similar sucking air in)...
