Legacy Focus XD - will I ever upgrade?

Right now, I am using the pre outs from a Yamaha AV Receiver into the emotiva pre amp with home theater bypass on. Then when switching to 2 channel audio, I turn off HT bypass which returns all controls to the pre amp where I have my streamer hooked up to a pre amp input and from there, on to the power amp and speakers. Would wavelet accomodate a similar if not true HT bypass function. Whats great about the HT bypass circuitry is that it turns off all functionality of the pre amp circuitry (including volume) and just passes the signal on to the power amp which eliminates having to level or balance volume between mains and surrounds as volume is 100% controlled by the AV receiver in HT bypass mode. (I should mention that I have these Focus XD speakers bi - amped as the internal power amp in thr speakers is driving the woofers)

Bringing this back up as I wonder if @douglas_schroeder or others have any insight regarding the AMT tweeter differences in the Focus SE V1 vs the current AMT setup? The Focus HD brought across the board differences in drivers, compared to earlier versions of the Focus. The current Focus SE (and other models) have a later version of the AMT tweeter as compared to Focus HD and the "V1" version of the Focus SE. I haven’t found commentary from Bill Duddleston (or others) about that progression and wondering what the feedback is on the first version of that AMT setup vs the current version.

In other words, is one giving up much in performance by having the HD version of the AMT vs current setup?

Thanks for any feedback.

Any feedback about the current vs previous AMT setup?

Thanks

I’m shopping for speakers and the Legacy line, especially the XD, has caught my eye.  If you ever think of selling let me know.
