I use both the iTouch and iPad with a Cambridge Audio DacMgic Plus and companion digital iD-100 dock.
Sound could be slightly better with the Pad, but very hard to tell.
Just hit the power button for the whole screen to go black (just as if it was turned off) while keeping the sounds alive.
I also use both with the special Bluetooth gizmo designed to work with the DacMagic Plus. Slight loss of fidelity, but huge gain in convinience as you can hold the iPod or Pad directly in your hands sitting from pretty mucb anywhere in your house and control both source and volume level as everything is ''Bluetoothed' to your main rig. Very cool.
