PlasticIsGood,
look closely the timing chart ,
in the DATA L row of I2S 8fs mode , it is annotated L1 R1 L3 above the chart.
and DATA R have R0 L2 R2 annotation.
it means the DATA L contains odd number of samples of 8fs signal and DATA R contains even.

one DAC of CDP-507ESD feeds the DATAL and WS/APT (and BCK),
the DAC outputs L1 and R1 at the next BCK from negative edge of WS/APT.
another DAC feeds DATAR and LE/\WS, then outputs L2 and R2 at the next BCK from negative edge of LE/\WS.
this is just the mechanism you presumed.
 
This idea went into Cambridge Audio's CD2, CD3 players and DAC3 (the original 80s one) didn't it but at x16 OS with 4 x 1541A chips? Or was it a different arrangment?

Have an advert somewhere that describes the arrangement in simplistic terms.

Stan Curtis says he spent time matching 1541As so that they were a closer match to each other than Philips provided with the S1s (probably custom matched Rs were too expensive to outsiders too ).
