Guitar amp/ practice?

Question

is playing a 15 watt amp considered loud when you are practicing guitar at home? Also i was looking at buying a 30 watt amp, and i wanted to know what would be the best kind for the best price.

thanks

Answer 1

15W is plenty for home.  I bought a 30W Line 6 and it's really too loud when I crank it up.  

Line 6 is a great amp because they have effects in the amp itself!  Most other amps just have reverb.

Answer 2

15 Watts in a home is quite loud! 30 Watts will only seem a tad louder. The ear's response is a logarithmic curve. Buy cheaply.
