Talk with Alvin at Vinshine and ask him if the Hermes or Iris DDC will make a significant difference to your Pontus. I was surprised at how big the improvement was using the Iris with my Topping D70.
If you are streaming to the BlueSound over bluetooth you can probably get a noticeable improvement by using Roon and streaming to the Bluesound over USB or Ethernet from a dedicated server or PC.
Upgraded power cords can make a surprisingly large difference in your system. I don't think Audiogon permits me to post links but if you google Aliexpress Store No. 625558 and then search that Audio Accessory store for High Quality Nordost odin 7N silver plated Supreme Reference Power Cable you should find some relatively cheap power cords that made an audible difference in my system. Put them on your amp and your DAC if you want to splurge.
All of that should be around the lower end of your budget.
