Then the big question is either an AMS type or multi extruders.

AMS easier to setup but lots of waste
Multi extruders are a real pain to setup and adjust, and this has to be done any time you change the nozzles. No waste though.
Knowing me, i will most probably go with multi extruders, i like to suffer!

Admittedly it's not the cheapest of printers, but I don't regret buying it.

The Prusa XL has load-cells in the extruders. You just take off the build-plate, put the calibration pin in the hole for that purpose and select "calibrate extruders" (or similar) and it taps each extruder in turn against the pin from 4 sides a few times (just like a probing macro with LinuxCNC).Multi extruders are a real pain to setup and adjust, and this has to be done any time you change the nozzles.

Came across this video today. I wonder how many people still think 3D printers are still just a toy? Admittedly before I got one
I used to think so myself.
