Listen to both. Compared next to each other, the 400 was in may ways superior to the 220 Pro in my setup. Bringing more authority, dynamics, Control in the base, etc. If you have very easy to drive speakers, this may not be the same, but my 4 Ohm, 89 db are pretty sensitive, and still really benefit from the 400 Watts the 400 drives them with.
As for upgrading: a 400 just as easily upgrades to a 440 Pro as a 220 Pro. Devialet already told us the upgrades will start again in the future. They are just not sure yet if the Infinity core Card will be included in the upgrade, but I will be surprised if it isn't. The 'vast superiority' of the 220 Pro as stated above is questionable compared to the 400. I would say they compare like 200 < 220 < 400 < 440 < 1000.
