Looking at the ripping instructions via the link I think that one ends up with an ISO file. For my (and I guess most peoples') computer replay needs I need to end up with a .DSF file. Am I correct? Does the software do the conversion?

If you read the whole thread (yes), you will see that there is a simple conversion to DSF. Use ISO2DSD for that and also as your GUI for the ripping.
Thanks Kal. As far as reading is concerned I am working my way through the whole thread on CA (51 pages of it) and find your step by step posting very clear ( although I still have doubts about my competence) for which I also thank you.
My main problem is getting a suitable player. The availability of candidates on the used market is nearly zero over here. As for new pieces they are either too expensive to buy for this limited purpose or have now been withdrawn by their distributors. Still maybe a poster in that thread may have come up with another alternative machine.
I see 2 UK brands.
Thanks for your time Kal but the Cambridge Audio model is NLA and the Arcam one is the equivalent of $900 which is far too expensive for this specific purpose (I don't need a second SACD player).
My path stopped at ISO files as I am using foobar2000 with the latest SACD component plug-in which can read all the tracks within the ISO files.
You can however convert these ISO files to DSF/DFF files using free utilities like Sonore ISO2DSD to get separate DSF or DFF files.
I hope this helps.
