I was more curious why the OP was doing this. Sony didn't also do the 14bit thing? What is a transport screw?
You may remember a few years ago, I restored my first CD player, a Revox, to as new condition.
That had the Philips CD transport. Yes, they were 14 bit, but a lot of gear was then. I think Sony was 16 though.
The transport screws, were two bolts that secured the disc tray for transport, to prevent damage.
Actually the execution was the important thing. That unit sounded very good indeed. There was no HF limit up to the limit of hearing.
Here is that unit playing a 20 KHz sine wave. As you can see it is perfect.
A guy joined this site and persuaded me to sell it to him. I got a good price, and I don't think I would have used it again.
