No, wont work properly.

Using an inverter to power that amp will induce a 60hz noise into your setup that you cant get rid of.

they make car amps for a reason, you can find a reasonably priced one at a small size that will perform much better on 12v DC

Hes right. I used to do 12v/120v systems in RVs, and going from a 120v source to a 12v amp, just aint working the way you would want it. I used to keep two systems in the RVs, the separate 120v and a 12v running off the battery banks

BUT, PE does have some little cheap multi use hobby amps that will work. You just need to case them up

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
