Just keep in mind that one also needs to consider other factors - gain, intermodulation distortion, perhaps damping factor, and I'm sure others I'm forgetting about. But yes, while one cannot say for certain, I would say there's a good chance a 252 and a 400 are going to sound the same (when driven to volumes that are within the power handling capacity of each one, given that the 252 is less powerful).
Since you seem to know much more than me, here is my situation
I have bought used smg magnepans each with its own bass panel, sound is a huge upgrade from my old polks with a emotiva bassx a-300.
I was thinking of either upgrading the amp to a hypex/purify for 800 to 1200usd
or
get one of the great measuring revel speakers m105 or m106 for a bit over 1200usd i think
Which will make a bigger change in quality?
The thing is I am in Egypt and our selection is quite limited, i have to import a lot of stuff ( we have limited selection and even the few available do not have models on display to hear, they usually order for you ( audiophile grade, stuff like polk and yamaha entry level is available mostly ).
