Back when I was experimenting, M-Audio AV40 powered monitors worked very well for amplifying keyboards. When you're sitting at your keyboard, have the speakers angled inwards with the tweeters pointing directly at you and at about ear level (they are near field monitors). Should be able to find a good set for 100-150 dollars.
They have 4" woofers. The problem with powered monitors with bigger speakers is that there is too much power - you don't really need more than 10 watts or so per channel for casual home playing.
