RE: Upsample before?

My now ancient 14bit Philips player, possibly the 1st player sold in this country was a 4x oversampler and provided jaw dropping performance for its time. It was also the basis for several modified players which sold for huge markups.
This player, if I could find a laser for it, would be nice in a vintage system. I'd love to A/B it against a 'modern' player which you'd hope would simply smoke it....but I'm not so sure.
Compared to the Sony player of the same era......well, there WAS no comparison.
