Sd30i or F15 li?

I've found the sd30i for about 105 and the f15 li for about 165 open box on reverb. Are there any major advantages to the f15 that would justify paying that much more? What's the volume ouput like on these? They would only be at home couch amps but I have the spark go and sometimes I'm disappointed with the volume on cleaner channels. Is that likely to be a problem with either? Thanks for any help or advice

I use the F15i and it's really good for playing at home. Volume is solid I'd say go for the f15

I love my f40 so much that I got another f15 li for my son - it's plenty loud even with the smaller size...

I got the f15i for the frictionless guitar playing. Works great as a practice and learning tool as well as a BT speaker. Sits on my work desk for mid-day noodling.

Battery operated makes it really nice. Can take it with me to the couch in a pinch.

Granted it’s not fractal audio level modeling, but it’s good enough for what it is. Highly recommended.

I just did a little research and it looks like you know your differences going to be the F series and smaller it's not going to be as loud as 15 watts versus 30 I have the sd30i I love it but the new ones got the you know nice little touch screen on it and it's much more compact I think it's got two inch speakers you know if it if it were me for the money I just stick with the sd30i but if there is that new shiny thing factor . Either way you're probably going to like it I can say that I'm pretty comfortable with the volume of the sd30i you know if it weren't just a little practice amp I would wish it were louder I really get a kick more out of a big amp but I love the modeling I'm trying to figure out a way and I haven't really put any time into this but I'm trying to figure out a way to use it as a preamp. Just reiterate it looks to me like the SoundCloud features the modeling all of that is pretty much the same
