JRemote is magic I use it on an iPad mini and an android phone, I use it to stream to a Bluetooth speaker

Media Server is setup on main pc, connect JRemote to it, select Zone as This Device and you can play the media server to the iPad speakers. Now pair a Bluetooth speaker and voila

Hope this helps
