Well, no, there's no TED register for PWM (the SID does have those). All you have is the 2 frequency registers and the volume/noise bit.
Digi playback is just changing the volume register quickly, so with that, it's possible to do "PWM" (as it is possible to play pretty much any waveform).
As far as bits: TLC maestro measured all the volume levels and made a nice table out of it, it's here in our mail archive somewhere. Using those produces the highest possible quality digis, I call it "quasi-8-bit". I think the hidden part of Vancouver 2010 is the first and so far the only demo that actually uses this (quite unceremoniously it seems, there's no mention of it anywhere). So, can you name a C64 demo that can play 16-bit samples? I haven't heard of that yet.
