There will be variance from device to device, I wouldn't count on the same position on each dial to provide the same output level.

Hopefully the SACD player will generate pink noise (my Pioneer DV-79AVi does) so you can balance the levels of each amp. Perhaps marking a few positions on each where the output levels are equal.
