How To Route Streaming Music From iPad 2 to DAC?

How about the Apple Camera Kit that converts the dock to a USB link...? The Apple store has them and I hear Target as well.

If this can be accomplished - it would be great! I've heard the Camera Kit link does connect via USB out - but, what is it designed for? moving jpeg files? mpeg? Not sure about continous streaming. The Cambridge dock sounds interesting - can't believe it won't accomodate an IPad 2. Good luck -

Yes, the Cambridge dock was actually only available this year, but they apparently did not realize (not that I knew either) that the iPad 2 has a different connector. Word is that they are looking into it and coming up with a solution, per my conversation with Audio Advisor yesterday, who is a Cambridge dealer.

"Apple Airport Express will give you by far the most convenient way to do it (wirelessly with AirTunes) -- this will allow you to still use th iPad for other stuff at the same time. Sound quality with an external DAC can be very good . . . way more than sufficient for any streaming audio service."

This sounds perfect for my needs. I have to confess that I had to research the Airport Express to see how it would work. Apparently I would use the USB port on the Airport Expresss to connect to the USB input on my DAC? My one concern is that the USB port on my Bryston BDA-1 DAC is limited to sample rates of 48kHz or lower.

My understanding is the airport express only streams music through the optical port. I don't believe the USB port will allow streaming.
