I don't quite get what you're asking //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Getting the same power depends upon what load the amps see from the speakers too.

If the amps are rated the same and you have the gains set the same, then you will get the same power output.

The class D is more effcient, so it takes less power in to make the same output power as a class AB.

no. no 2 amps are exactly the same, even if they are the same model number. moreso, if they are both from different manufactures.
