I've wondered what would happen if you left the mass
alone and simply boosted the bass signal so you get the
same speaker movement. Does this screw up relative phase?

Relative to what?

If so, what happens if you use a digital filter before the power amp so as
to fix
that up?

In general, bass equalization works, as long as you don't exceed the dynamic
range of the driver.

Would the low bass efficiency be the same as if you had
weighted the cone?

Weighting the cone just cuts the efficiency of the driver in its mass-loaded
range.
