Amplifier "Class"

Is it possible to tell the class of amplifier just based on this info:  ST mos-fet amp modules?  My un-educated guess is AB.

Thanks!

Yes.  I think the International Rectifier chipset boards from Class D Audio (currently being discussed in Cheap and Cheerful HiFi) use MOSFETs.
 
As far as MOSFETs used in Class A, I believe the Pass Aleph's use them.
