I would agree with 3+4=5. I've had shops like that and I always use
just 2 high eff. horn setups on the far end (not sidewalls), that
way you're always in the sweet spot. Old PA stuff works great and
also cheap, i.e. ... JBL 4560's (many clones out there) can be had
for under $200./pr. loaded, or $100. for empty cabs. Many horns to choose
from to mount on top. You won't need a big amp, I've never needed
over 40 WPC and that's with loud classic rock.

If you don't go the bass horn route, two 15" + tweeter horn per side
would do it, but with 100 WPC+. Check Craigslist for used PA speakers,
sometimes at bargain prices.
