AnswerYes, audio can be fed out of the lightning connector but in digital format. Some amplifiers and CD players have an iPhone compatible USB connection which will use the inbuilt DAC to convert the signal (or use an external stand alone DAC) which will in theory give better quality sound than using the 3.5 mm earphone output. If you want to connect to an RCA input you would have to use the 3.5 mm jack connection.
