I appreciate all the kind words…. I’ve just learned so much from useful posts on here that I felt I owed a giant debt…
Regarding the speakers, it definitely came down to a “form over function” decision for me, which may not be for everyone but I do really like them myself. I was thinking you could try and use a splitter like this to separate the L & R and achieve 0 latency.

The stereo to dual-mono breakout cable you would need is dependent on the connector on your mics. If they are 3.5mm , this is a short version:
These cables, with female jacks on the breakout end, are difficult to find.
You would use a mono cable for each speaker.
That is not the correct splitter, as it sends both channels to both jacks. You want a splitter like this:
