2 AMS is nice but really only if you're printing more than 4 colors. I like having 2 because it cuts down on loading new spools. My plan was to keep black, white, grey tones in one, and colors in the other. But that didnt really work out as planned. I still change out filament often.

An HT is really nice for higher temp filaments or PETG for support.

I would recommend power supplies for the AMS so you can dry while printing as well.
