Which amp would be better?

At first I was sure that I'd buy the Roland Cube 15x because it had gotten really good reviews for this price range but then I realized that it had a lack of cool effects which I'd like to have. So the Cube 20x started to cross my mind since it has more effects. Other than that I don't really know much of a difference. The 20x costs a bit more but not too much.

The 15x costs 97 Euro which is about 125 USD
Roland Cube-15x Playback 82 € Exc VAT

The 20x costs 146 Euro which is about 185 USD
Roland Cube-20x Playback 124 € Exc VAT

So, do you think the 20x is worth the extra money? Also, if you have any other suggestion of a suitable amp around this price range. Please let me know

I would even concider the 30x, even more features and the extra punch when required.

They are great amp's I have a cube 30 so it has less features than the x series but I would not replace it. I dont think you will go wrong with any of your choices.

I'd go with the 20X between the two you originally listed. It has more amp models and the included FX, which are quite decent enough to play with for a while. The alternative would be to get the 15X and buy a couple of FX pedals - actually a better setup since you can then switch your FX on/off at will, but more expensive in the long run.
