In some instances, setting a device to output PCM as opposed to having bitstream the actual format the audio was encoded with can result in you getting audio that is less desirable. The audio you get resulting PCM data in such instances will be no better than the audio you'd have gotten had you bitstreamed the encoded audio the PCM data was derrived from. It can technically be better by way of it allowing for higher bitrates, but setting a source device to output PCM rather than allowing it to bitstream the formats the content is encoded with simply results in the source converting other formats to PCM data. It depends upon where the PCM digital data is derrived from and how it was encoded.
