Welcome to the forum Taras :^)

It Is my Wife's legs)))))
Drivers in my speaker - is USSR drivers (20 years old), caled "Radiotechnika"
Bass/mid - 35GDN-1-4 (35W RMS, 4 Ohm, 35-5000Hz)
Hi freq. - 3GDV (4-25KHz, 4 Ohm)
It is very popular drivers with fine and natural sound. I don't like carbon, alluminium or plastic drivers - only papper and silk in my mind))

Welcome to the forum Taras, and nice project there the seat heater for your wife's scooter. I made my own heated gloves as well as heated grips for the v-strom I ride, and even at -15C it was nice to have warm hands. Never had problems with cold at the bottom half

Dave, I will share some photos about my sity for you and my first successful amplifiere project.
Intresting loudspeaker enclosure of your "Ekaterina". Is it TQWP?

Ikoflexer,
-15 - it is realy hard!!
I don't ride after -5 because my scooter with air-cooled engine and -5 - it is critical temperature for riding.

I have found some photos of one of my installations.
Scooter - Suzuki skyWave 400
2xJBL 5" 2-ways speakers, 2 Ohms
Amp - based on TDA1554



Red dirty scooter - it is my scooter)

Yes, sort of. An ML-V (Mass Loaded Voigt) for the CSS EL70. A 1st pass at a 3rd speaker in my Monolith range after Mileva (Fostex FE127e) and Demetri (FE207e)

Interesting
about 8 years ago i made my first diy-acoustics. It was one-way speakers with 3GDh (wide range, 93 Db sencitivity) speakers. and 10W per channel stereo amp. There was no hi freq. and bass, bat midrange was realy amasing)
Now i trying to make psb for TDA8560, but it is impossible to me because i have not enough experience(
Can you halp me? I use standart circuit from oficial datashit.
Dimentions of PSB - 80x80mm, i want.
