Yes, get a short tube 80 to 100mm refractor would be good for visual use. But don't get rid of the Meade. Instead use the Meade on one side of the apartment and the refractor on the other side. I consider the two complementary for the views they show.
But if space really is a problem in your apartment and you can't have two, a 5" Mak mounted on a solid Alt Azimuth mount like they sell at Bintel (NOT the AZ3) is pretty compact and powerful - better than an 80mm refractor but not as good as the 8".
