How to connect Tidal to DAC wireless via iPad

The weak link you have now is using the iPad to push the signal to the DAC. Tablets and laptops are noisy and that noise gets into the signal. I agree that a streamer would be a big improvement. I went from sending Tidal etc from a laptop via USB to my DAC and when I moved to a streamer I was quite surprised at the improvement in sound. And then you need no wire attached to the Ipad. The streamer app on the tablet talks to the streamer via wifi for song album choices. But the signal is pulled into the streamer directly from the NET avoiding the Ipad electronics. If you can, it seems best to connect the streamer directly to your internet with a cat5 or better cable as opposed to via wifi.
You can try this out with a Node2i for not much $. You will be happy. And at some point you can upgrade the streamer as needed. But your  troubadour se III is a great DAC and I  would send the streamer to your DAC for sure.

I use an Arcam rPlay which connects directly to my router with an ethernet cable and accepts an Airplay signal from an iPad via Airplay. I'm using it for Amazon Music HD and the iPad has no interaction with the signal, it's just a control for the Amazon Music HD app. The sound is as good or better as playing from  a CD through the same Bel Canto DAC. The rPlay is no longer distributed but the Audioengine B-Fi works the same way and I know it works with Qobuz so if the Tidal app on the iPad supports Airplay it should work, as well. It's a less expensive solution to a full-on streamer that's perfectly suited for what I'm doing .

Thank you everyone for updating me on what is possible. Looks like I will research buying something that connects direct via cat 5 cable ( I assume that I can use a splitter) to the streaming device and then go directly from my DAC via USB ? (My coax is used to connect my cd). Thanks 

With the Dayton Audio device I use, and it looks like the Arcam unit also mentioned, you can connect wireless via your wireless router. In my case, my router is upstairs, my system down, with no good way to connect directly via cat5 for internet connection. Of course if you can, great. Thus, the very small unit I have can sit in my rack (somewhat hidden actually) connected wirelessly to my router upstairs in my office, and yes, then ‘hardwire’ connected to my DAC. I use the digital RCA to my DAC from my CD player, so for me, the optical is the only other choice, as my old PS Audio DAC only has optical and RCA inputs. The Dayton unit also has USB output, so you could use that as well.

Not all streamers output to USB. But most will out as optical Toslink. And if I am not mistaken, your DAC accepts Toslink as an input. A splitter or hub should be fine to the network cable to the streamer.
