ghn4ever, do consider Jazzfish's offer. If the price is good, it is a good pair of monitor speakers for the general user whose main aim is to play sounds off the keyboard. Remember you are not trying to start a studio.
I've been using the MS202 for more than 10 years before finally selling them off. I was using them for the exact same purpose as you - getting sounds off keyboards. It serves the purpose well.
Back to mixers: I only got my Mackie mixer when I had a number of modules. But after going totally software, my mixer no longer comes into much use except in occasions when I had to record vocals and live instruments. So it is now under-used. Keep your setup simple and minimal - therefore low cost. I would save all that money on getting better keyboards than all the paraphernalia.

As Cheez said, no need for a mixer if you only have one piece of equipment.
I have the tascam VL-X5 - bought it from Luther. I don't have much experience in electronic music gear but I find its a real good piece of equipment, so I don't regret it.
As I only have one keyboard, i plug it directly into the tascam.

Thanks for all your advices. I will do some studies on different brands and models,and also compare their sounds since monitor speakers are not inexpensive and they go by each piece.
An off topic Qn: do most of you here grad from NAFA or Lasalle or Berkeley? are you professional musicians? Unlike me, I am working in the financial industry and only a part time piano learner.

Heh just wanted to double confirm what Ian said - the Tascams are amazingly loud for their size, so you probably forgot to increase the volume of each speaker.
It's black in color and looks like the head of philips screw (i.e. the the opposite of the american, i.e. 'cross' screw head).
