New Practice Amp?

I'm looking to pick up a new practice amp. I've narrowed down the search, would you good folks be able to provide any insight regarding the following amps:

• Hartke HD15 1x6.5" 15-Watt Bass Combo

• Ashdown AAA30 - 30W 1x8" Bass Combo

• Ampeg BA-108v2 1x8" 20-Watt Bass Combo

Thanks!

Keep the volume low. Each will work fine.

I've had an Ampeg for a couple years. Sounds great and I have used it for rehearsals, home practice, duos with a guitar player and even some small trio gigs with an SM-57 on it. Best $99 I ever spent.
(Had a waitress dump 3 gallons of sweet tea on it a few weeks ago. Drained it out, let it dry, wiped it off with Armourall wipes, not one issue with it.)
But as @Stumbo said- they all work fine. Go try em out and see which one you like. If you can. Have fun!
