Remember to compare Apples to Apples. Meaning that, Of course your new receiver is going to sound better with PCM..... it also sounds better playing DD/DTS than your older receiver. I bet if you compared your old receiver to your new TX-SR605 with DD5.1 vs DD5.1 tracks and DTS vs DTS tracks it would sound better also. So buying a new receiver is probably what made such a huge difference for you. However I'm not disagreeing with you. I know for a fact PCM sounds much better anyways.
