You can't get zero latency on any interface, even the best of them will have 4-5ms, cause it's a theoretical minimum that signal requires to go through the electronics and come back to speakers.
If you need a better interface than POD, you can try Emu 1212m card, or even the 0404 PCI card, they have small latency, around 10ms, even less, and you can insert hardware effects that are on the card, with no latency whatsoever. Monitor speakers don't affect the latency, so any speaker will do, they better speaker, better the sound of course. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

As everyone said, zero latency just can;t happen even with the best interface, but you can get zero latency monitoring on some cards - they let you minor your recording by feeding it to headphones independantly of the computer so you don't get a delay
Regarding headphones - they are great for recording and playing. They are less good for mixing as you get a very different acoustic environment so mixes will sound wrong on speakers if you make them on headphones. Cheap or expensive monitors won';t affect latency at all, just playback quality. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile
