This topic came up on this very list not more than a few months ago.
The conversation starts in the archives here:

and continues for a handful of messages.
The short answer is that hardware monitoring has been supported since
the very first release of Mac OS X (actually it was supported even
before that) and was improved greatly in 10.3 with the addition of more
kinds of controls the driver can provide that modify the monitor signal
path. Apps and drivers have yet to catch up with what the system
supports in this area.

Dear Core Audio group....
I recently googled the net (there's a phrase you wouldn't hear a few
years ago) regarding the latest developments on Direct Hardware
Monitoring with OS X and core audio. I was unable to find any new
information in the intervening year since this was last brought up in
detail on the Core Audio List.
This component of DAW/hardware control is critical to the advancement
of technologies in the professional recording field, and my studio
specifically. I am looking to the future for Chicago Public Radio to
expand our use of applications such as Nuendo on a Mac platform so
that we can provide audio services for our listeners and our record/CD
clients.
Currently I cannot work efficiently with this application due to the
contraints put on my systems due to a lack of direct monitoring. Are
there any new developments in this area?
Low Latency monitoring of audio, whether it be from a tape machine or
DAW, is critical to a professional headphone mix for the band and
artists. This simply isn't possible short of a ProTools system.
I can't stress enough the importance of this issue.
