Once and for all 
It's not the wattage and not the measurements that makes the different Dxxx models sound different.
I had both model on my workbench, some D200 and some D250. I think the measurments are the same for the two. The parts (and partsnumbers) of every board inside are the SAME for the two.
Devialet is not dumb. They can do anything with their DSP-Technology. A filter here and some phase alteration there...that alters the sound for the better or worse.
A D200 sounds similar to a D250 with the slight difference of more transparency and finess for the D250-sound...that might be easy to achieve on a digital level, wouldn't it?
This holds true even for the dual Monos as you can update your single Dxxx to Dual Mono at any time. Sure a dual Mono measures slightly different. But a D400 sounds even more transparent than a D250. That might be founded due to the altered signal path in a dual mono (see my mods discussion threads) but it is more likely and easier that Devialet just switches to another stack with different DSP patterns when you buy a companion and set it up as dual mono in the configurator.
