I think you should check out the nuforce air DAC.
It is a very small DAC that puts out a line level signal- very clean- and receives data from a transmitter unit. It's protocol is SKAA- not airplay or bluetooth which both give fairly poor audio quality by audiophile standards. SKAA streams at 16/48- CD quality. The dac and amp are very clean.
The transmitters come in a USB unit and a small unit for Iphone 3, 4 and Ipads using the older 30 pin plug. The unit is small enough that you could place behind the Quad 12L.
I bought one for my brother and he reports it sounds much better than his New Denon CD player.
Cheers
