Several nonexistence and existence results for certain real solutions of \(u_{tt}=u_{xx}-g(u)\) \(((x,t)\in {\mathbb{R}}^ 2\) or \({\mathbb{R}}^{\pm}\times {\mathbb{R}})\) are proved. These solutions represent time almost-periodic free vibrations which decay towards a constant equilibrium solution as the spatial variable gives to infinity. Nonexistence: solutions forced to be trivial, whenever their spectrum does not interact with the nonlinearity in a certain sense, or without requiring any spectral conditions with stringent conditions on the nonlinearities. Existence: time almost-periodic free vibrations whose profiles decay exponentially rapidly towards a constant. The wave equation is converted into a dynamical system in which the original spatial variable plays the role of time, then embedded into on appropriate Banach space of time almost-periodic functions. Several examples are discussed: \(g(u)=\pm \sinh u\), \(\sum^{N}_{j=1}c_ ju^{2j-1}\), \(\pm 2ue^{u^ 2}\), etc.
