Some NewerTech CPU upgrade card.
Yes, for a PCI series (7500-9600) Mac.

The Diimo card appears to be a 50mhz 030 upgrade with cache
That is considered by some to be the most desirable of SE/30 upgrades. You will find mention of it here and on Applefritter.

Ooo, audio hardware.
Oh my oh my oh my - a nice haul of Digidesign audio interfaces there (some rebranded Avid). Digidesign's support pages should be some help in working out what goes with what, once you navigate their labyrinth. The top one looks like a 442 or an 882, and the bottom like an 888. Apparently with the correct card/cable set, they can be used with either a Nubus or PCI Mac.

The cables and cards you are looking for to go with them have connectors that look like SCSI, and will be branded either Digidesign or Avid, or both.
