The merits of upsampling
You want to use Philips DSDIFF instead of DSDIFF Edit Master, as this will split the album into one file per track, instead of a single track. AFAIK, some SACD ISO files do have DST, so you also want to enable the "Convert DST to DSD" option. DST is a compressed format, which cannot be tagged. You do not need an extra step for this, just convert straight from ISO to DFF with that option enabled.

The merits of upsampling
Trax (the free trial version) is one of the methods I tried for dsf extraction, but it still gave me a slight click/pop between tracks on gapless albums.

The merits of upsampling
I use the Sonore Java app: http://dsd.sonore.us/iso2dsd_OSX_v6.zip Note that I convert to dff, not dsf, since I find that dsf is never truly gapless in my system (Audirvana to Ayre DAC). Whenever I play a gapless album (DSOTM, classical recording), I get a very slight click between dsf tracks (and I've tried about 4 or 5 different dsf conversion methods), that is only audible over headphones. I have no such issues with dff. I use Yate to tag those dff files, and Audirvana can read those tags.

At least 12 years old too, since it predates our move to our current abode. It's my favorite headphone stand, as it was obviously manufactured with the SR-X Mk3 in mind. It's probably caused by the stretched headband, to accommodate my franken-head, which caused a loose fit on yours. Thanks for letting me listen to the HD800S, and some nice jazz.
