Make that 525 hours for stereo.

Plus the source device.  And the light bulbs in both, if any.

And I think the efficiency factor might be off by an order of magmitude. 
  Still good for a day or two of continuous running.

A more typical 400 AH battery that is a couple of years old should still 
hold up for a third of that, say 8-16 hours...
