I was initially excited to hear the XL was finally getting some attention, but the price of this upgrade has me quite disappointed. It would cost me at minimum $500 to upgrade my 5 tool head XL, and that's not including the new high flow nozzles.
I was an early XL adopter and pre-ordered based on my great experience with their MK3S printers. I love my XL when it works as intended, but it's been a long and rocky road to get it to a point of being pretty reliable. I've sunk countless hours of my time and loads of filament tinkering with and without Prusa support to troubleshoot issue after issue and even then still having to wait months or years for software updates to solve problems that it never should have shipped with.
So now to find out that there's finally a real solution to make it the printer that was promised years ago, but it costs as much as many printers is yet another letdown in my XL journey.
