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.

Ok, I stand corrected:

As the speed of sound is about 340m/s, you will capture shoulder
reflections even with just 128 samples.


(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.)

Best,

Stefan
