Bluesound node + INNUOS PHOENIX USB? 

I have a Michi X3 with a Bluesound 2i and have been looking at a streamer update for a while.  In the narrow selection are : 

Auralic Aries g2.1 or 
Innuos Pulse (no remote control, not yet available?) 

From the features I'm excited about Bluesound, do I get the same quality as the above products with a new Bluesound + a USB Reclocker? 

Glad to hear your opinion, thanks.

I went from a Bluesound to an Auralic Aries G1 and have been very happy with the sound quality upgrade.

Glennewdick said a mouthful. Find a OS you like and upgrade the DAC. I have the Gustard X26 PRO. You can see details in my system. Love bluos for my android phone used as a remote and upgraded the NODE from there. No expensive reclocker, just added a LPS and optical isolation for ethernet, plus decent power cables. Willing to bet It would give a good run for the money for streaming systems costing more than 3 times as much.

BTW, using UBS connection to Gustard so it uses the Gustard clock instead of the NODE's. No other connection does that. BIG difference.

I have the Auralic Altair G1.1 really like it. Pretty simple to use, sounds great by my ear and has caused me to have to work at listening to other music sources.
