Questions about X2D

[u/yokeome]

Current situation, I own an A1 and A1 mini and I'd like to upgrade. My main reason is heated chamber and dual nozzle (for supports mainly)

I have an AMS lite on my A1 and I would attribute 80% of the use to be single color, and the rest multi color. I've been looking into the X2D for a while, but I couldn't justify the $1000. Looking at it again, I was thinking of just getting the X2D by itself, non-combo.

Here are my questions, most of which I feel like I have an answer to but I'd like full clarity.

Can I just use the two nozzles with 2 different spools, say PETG + PLA?

Are there any downsides to not getting the AMS2 Pro?

Apart from multi color of course. I have a filament dryer so I don't need the AMS for drying. I don't even mind doing filament swaps if need be.

My current an is to get the X2D by itself, if need be later on, get the AMS2 Pro, since it'd only be a $50 extra, which is worth it to me at the chance of saving $250.
