I'm trying to figure out the best route to take to get a. better recording sound, and b. zero latency recording.
As i've said in other posts I currently use a Pod X3 live, and i'm pretty happy with the sound i'm getting, it's good enough for what I do right now. But I have been thinking about getting some interface to get zero-latency when I record.
I've been looking at some products from emu and tc electronics among others.

Would an a audio interface and some cheap monitors be enough to get decent zero-latency? Are there any realy cons to using studio-headphones instead of monitors when doing home recordings?

Input appreciated

I would recommend EMU 1212 sound card and some active monitors..You won't hit actual zero latency but you will be very satisfied! Well monitors are often used when mixing space effects like delay and reverb..It get's you a full sound picture and depth..Headphones are good too and can be interesting when mixing some panning (left and right) effects!...
