[QUOTE="1am7h30n3, post: 1127836, member: 13860"] I have in the past run just my audio system off an inverter, it's certainly possible, in general they don't use much power. Now I run a solar system that runs part of the house and the audio and video stuff runs off it too. I think the power from the inverter is very clean (cleaner than Eskom?), I have not noticed any added noise, no. If you have smaller batteries then you should pay attention to the efficiency of the system, i.e. class A amps or similar won't help you out! Some receivers and amps will draw lots of power just turned on (not standby) but without music playing, a Marantz I no longer use was > 120W at idle, it was quite effective at heating my room as well...
