I've been told I can not strip this stain off and need to sand it off. The spindles can stay as they're in good shape still. It's about 800 sq feet plus stairs. What would be the best and most time effective way to tackle this? What would be the best sander and paper grit?

That looks like paint to me. Anyway, I don't ow why you wouldn't be able to strip that off. I've done very similar jobs with great results. Get some of your favorite stripper and try a small section. I think you'll be surprised at the results.
