Thank you and sorry, of course your opinion would be valuable, and probably I would not need to do all that journey.

I just didn't take it into account because my default behaviour when I face a subject I do not domain and can not domain in a feasible time is: think in someone who I know already domain the subject, ever if partially, or may know someone - usually I go back to the University. I do it automatically.

It is a long time project, and it was a reason I was reluctant to post about it here for now. I need to solve some business issues¹ before I can begin to execute any major plan in my life, what necessarily include moving on from my country - what is the easiest part. With almost everything in this audio project involving high import duties, I would be crazy to do it now and them take almost everything back, more or less, from their origin.

Now, directly answering your questions, the room will be made on purpose, standalone out of the house (wherever it will be). The idea is indeed, if necessary and applicable, have some acoustic  "improvements" already integrated in the structure. I am certain the horns and amplifiers would take mode time to be ready to delivery than to the room be built.

What is really concerning me is the fact Portugal is very prone to earthquakes², not I am afraid of it, I was indeed living in there in 2009 when a 6.0 degree (Ritcher) happened. I concerned of somehow those >120 Hz modules fall, specially if they remember to fall on top of the amplifiers...

¹ I depend of some government acts, and it is a complete mess here (Brazil) right now. The things are really totally out of control.
