Hi Romy,

Won't work with row houses but....

Suburbs close to the city don't have much space around here, but often have a patch of useless lawn (unless you plan on a McMansion, whereby your house should cover every possbile square centermeter of land).  This is my situation and I have thought about this for a while; perhaps you can make use of the lawn. 

- If you will be listening on the ground floor, one option could be to put the horns outside and just bore a few holes into the house.  You could approach the holes in several ways; just putting two holes in the house could be a problem for horn adjustments and (perhaps!) resale in certain situations.  You might also think of putting holes where windows are or could be placed in the future.  As you want to protect the horns from the elements and control temperature, you would need some type of addition, perhaps something that in the future could be converted into a sunporch with sliding doors put where the holes were and windows added.

- If you will be listening in the basement you could build an underground basement addition (like a cave), although from a practical perspective that could get a bit expensive to pay off the city "inspectors", dig the hole and pour the cement.  You would need to build that extension a bit big to get around or if you want to change/adjust things; I think the above ground extension would be easier to change
