A phenomenal new CD transport-Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 transport
I have no issue with the remote either.  It does need to be pointed directly at the unit though.  
How critical is streamer hardware to SQ when it feeds a good DAC?
@yyzsantabarbara - thank you Karen  
DirectStream: Bridge or USB connection?
I have a Directstream DAC w/Bridge II.  I prefer USB over the bridge connection.

Oh Ye of Little Format
The results are meaningless if the system specifics aren’t listed.  A lower end system wouldn’t have the resolving capability to hear a difference.  
Replacement DAC with USB in, XLR outs
I would recommend the PS Audio Directstream DAC.  They are available used for under $3000.00 and they meet all your requirements.    
Which would you recommend?
@rpeluso  audioshark.org site is also an excellent site for well rounded advice on the players you mentioned.  
Differences the Project RS2 Transport and the (newest) Jay's Audio CD2 Mk 3
@alfa100 - you need to create a new post for this question.  
CD transports
I think you should keep the Luxman. I have the Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 Transport and it has added significantly to the enjoyment of my CD collection, however I would think your Luxman would sound just as good.

@jasonbourne52 - you obviously don't know what you are talking about but your trolling skills are beyond reproach.  Congrats on crapping on another thread.      
Aqua 'La Diva' ($9k) or Gryphon 'Ethos' ($39k) versus. Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 T ($3k)?
@tommylion - you are missing out on a great transport (Pro-Ject RS2 T) by not considering it because of a lack of programability. Doesn’t make sense to me to give up great sound for functionality that I would use for perhaps one out of a couple hu... 
Is business that good ?
I would move on from Innous.  There are better options out there for the money.  
Best connection between Auralic Aries G2.1 streamer and PS Audio Directstream dac?
USB is the best connection barring using I2S.  I have tested the Directstream DAC with several streamers and have settled on USB.  Easy to do side by side comparisons.  
What caused double posts of same discussion
Because people don’t wait for the system or moderators to post their message!  
Jay’s Audio CD2-Mk3 or PS Audio PST?
I talked to Wally at Underwood HiFi a couple of weeks ago.  He said the middle of March at the earliest for the Project CD Box RS2T and Linear Power Supply.  Lucky for me I picked these up earlier from a couple of other dealers.
