Do you need those special cards for the rosetta 200 when u use it as a ad convertor?

The Rosetta 200 has SPDIF on RCA, TOSLINK on Optical, AES/EBU on XLR as standard connections on the box. You can use Apogee X-Cards like the X-Symphony, X-Firewire, [now discontinued] and X-HD cards to interface the Unit with Symphony 64, a FW host, or PTHD systems. I have a XFW card in mine and it works great with my Mac Laptop, but I plan to interface it with AES/EBU when my Symphony I/O has USB support.

1/ Will a rosetta 200 as ad convertor give the apogee sound? Also if you have an orpheus as da?

2/ As i am probably going to buy an x-rack too i want to be sure about some things...So i can put the master output of the x-rack via xlr into the rosetta (or do i miss something)?

3/ Will this system work on an imac (if this doesnt then i have to buy a macpro)?

Thanks
