What pippin said is correct, Squeezecenter handles all the transcoding.
I already have to do that for my Controller as it has an issue with
wireless reception and can't stream FLAC files without constant
rebuffering (my SB3 has no problems on the same network so it's
definitely a Controller issue). As such, I have SC set to transcode all
files streamed to the Controller down to 320kbps if they're at a higher
bit rate. This setting can be applied on a per-player basis, so could
easily be done for an iPeng player in the future, and I doubt there
would be any noticeable sound quality difference through the
iPhone/iPod Touch.
