Yamaha may be a better receiver but this one blew me away once I got the new audio formats to work properly.
These 2 AVRs have more in common than not. the biggest difference is that you won't get much in the way of 7:1 from the 605 because it doesn't have the option of using 7:1 decoders on 5:1 sources. It'll still sound great though.
