I'd say any of the transformers would work with the Jap DC power supply.
With regard to getting better power to the SRM-252 directly, you need to match it to the specs of the amp. It says 12V/4Watts... i.e. current should be ~330mA. So look for a power adapter that fits those specs with the right size jack and polarity. Why limit yourself to a certain brand/model when those guidelines give you enough to pick from various models?
The reason why folks are steering you to a regulated linear power supply is because it's just better quality (and it should be more expensive). The better the quality of the power supply the less the regulators in that tiny amp will need to work (so it'll last longer). By running more voltage into the 252 you're just shortening the life of the silicon in there.
No one is probably going to give you a model and brand because they can't stand by it and say it'll work unless they own one.
So I ask for the third time now, will this work?

12 V
18 W
Center negative
AC-DC unregulated linear
I'm expecting an answer other than from DefQon since he already answered it.
And also for the third time here, will this work?

And I recently found this. Will this work?

Again, y'all say don't use X, but then you don't give any recommendations otherwise. Y'all say don't use X, but you don't say why, nor what will happen. I just tried the 100 V thing and nothing noticeably bad happened. I contacted the person in Japan whom I bought the SRS-2170 from and I received the reply:
