Why do you mean that best way is to downgrade from multichannel/stereo original SACD RIP to stereo DSF files?

There is no downgrade involved at all, the ISO is converted to DSF files losslessly. The only penalty is the DST compression found on the multichannel files will be discarded, so they will consume more storage space. 

Whether or not you can then playback the multichannel files with any given software is another/different topic, however there is no "downgrade" when extracting DSF from an ISO.

Software such as Moode is only going to playback the stereo files, but those stereo DSF tracks are not in any way inferior to what is found on the ISO.
