"Does anyone have experience in running high quality sound systems/Bryston on solar produced power?"

I've been off-grid with batteries for about 30 years now and can highly recommend it. You should not have any problems with a good quality inverter and a good solar input regulator. The only time I've had any problem was with a regulator that should have been ok but caused all sorts of interference with radio reception for some reason.

The only slight caution I'd suggest is that when you're using a battery/solar system you do need to keep an eye on your total power consumption, especially if you get odd events like a week without sun. I've never found that an issue but it could be for some people.

What's the power consumption of your Bryston system in total?

The biggest consumers would be the Bryston 28's and the Pioneer plasma monitor.  The source stuff is mainly solid state, 70 watts each or thereabouts for the preamp and phono preamp.

Lots of good info here, appreciate all the responses.
