Bear in mind that optically, it's always better to Barlow/Powermate up than to reduce down.
Refractors are great - highly versatile, no fuss. A SCT will require constant collimation.

Actually my C8 seems to hold its collimation very very well. In fact Ive only done it once this year :-) (Then again I dont transport it around that much, so there is no reason why it would get out of alignment)
