Could just be due to the RCA/cable combo conveying more audible information than that conveyed by the cable previously used, so if the source contains more "noise" perhaps that noise is now being heard?
Some components respond negatively to some cables.
Sometimes the power cable and Interconnect combination can have an effect on a component.
Sometimes the outlet the component is plugged into can cause an issue and the introduction of a better quality Interconnect merely highlights that issue.
Hard to pinpoint without experiencing the setup and the issue first hand and trying some different alternatives.
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance
