Take a gander through here:

MOTU and Focusrite are good quality units and popular choices.

There are a ton of 2-in / 2-out units for podcasters and such.

If you need more outputs, here's one with 4 outs:

Here's a rackmount unit with 10 outputs:

A different option to consider would be if your audio console has a 
Dante port (audio over Ethernet). You could buy a copy of Dante Virtual 
Soundcard for $50 and install it on your Mac. It'll output up to 64 
channels digitally through the Ethernet port to your audio console.
