I was trying to say something else. The head moves independently of shoulder position. Pinnae are rigidly linked to the head; the shoulders are not. That is what made me think the two should be treated separately.

(If your ear-shoulder distance is about 20cm, the shoulder reflections will arrive about 40cm delayed compared to direct sound, i.e. about 1,2 ms later. 128/44.100 = 2,9 ms.)
