New hd500x amps worth it?

Hello! I was thinking about picking up one of the recently released amp packs for my 500x. I'm particularly interested in the JCM800 model as I don't care much for the stock one. Are they worth the price? Anyone have any audio clips of the new stuff? The last time I looked it was just medium gain, bluesy stuff on YouTube.

Worth? 

Depends on how desperately you need it. 

It is certainly cheaper than going out and buying a dozen different amps and cabs - even cheaper than just the one that you want.

 

 

I get all of the sounds I want out of the stock models. I don't even use all of them. I, personally, have no reason for them. 

That doesn't mean that you don't/won't. 

 

 

 

*yes, there is a difference between the free and paid marshall amps.

Yeah they're worth it - they're very inexpensive.  I bought them and returned them.  I wasn't looking to change but wanted to see if it was something I needed.  That's the great thing.  You can try them out and if you don't like them, return it.  I think you get 30 days, if I remember right.

I agree with pianoguyy.

If you are in need for a special amp model it might be worth buying it. I personally have not really need for it. I've bought the whole bundle when there was the reduced price offer but I returned them all because there where only 3 amps that I liked from different packs. For me it wasn't worth buying all for just 3 amps that I would use.

But I'm using only 3-4 amps of the stock ones too :-)
