Your expert advice appreciated

Hi all,

I've had remarkably good luck with a TC Finalizer. My print chain was ADAT out of an
RME card into the TC. The TC connected SPDIF to Protools all clocked by an Aardvark.

I've been working on laptops for the last 2 years mixing ITB by mix rendering with Ableton Live. I sold everything else for the purpose of a mobile lifestyle.
The bad news , I found my mixes to be a little "congested" and narrow. The good news, The clients can't tell the difference.

I need to set up shop again.

Listening back to some mixes done at my old studio I realized I had something good going. I used a bunch of hardware synths plugged into 2 yamaha 01v's connected to the TC clocked by the Aardvark. This gave me wide, pleasant mixes.

So here I am now with a little budget. This is what I've condensed down from my collegues opions as well as the opinions expressed here at Gearslutz:

MacPro- the biggest most overpriced mac I can find.
Rosetta 800
UA, LA-610
Giga Studio-RME HDPS9652

My question is what print chain should I put together for varying styles of music?
It was suggested to me that I come analog out of the Rosetta into a Manley Vari-mu
and possibly a stereo EQ like API's or the Mini-Massive. I will also have a TC in the chain when I feel homesick. And then analog back in. How would this sound?

Also, if I go with the Rosetta 800 will I benefit with another clock?

Comments much appreciated.
Best Regards,
Dave.
