OK, I've answered your mail with a bit more detail but let'S do the
short version here, too, to avoid confusion:

AirPlay does of course not work directly with LMS but it DOES work just
fine with iPeng's playback. Under iOS 7 some people have even been
successful in using synchronization although that's still clearly not as
good as with a Squeezebox or an iThingy wired to the speakers. Although
that could also have been caused by the downstream audio chain on my
AppleTV, I have to experiment a bit more with this.

The limitations of AirPlay are in the way AirPlay works: you only get
44.1/16, everything else will play but get re-sampled by iOS.
And iPeng has to run for the Audio to play. On an iPad that's probably
feasible due to the large battery and the large RAM.

Still... if you've got a spare iThingy I'd dock it and use it as a
dedicated player. Makes for a nice, permanent NowPlaying screen and
definitely syncs well (if it's at least a 3rd generation device).
