Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like the problem with your Sony GTK-X1BT is likely with the power board. The two power transistors that you replaced may have been the original cause of the problem, but it is also possible that they were damaged when you replaced them. The fact that the same two transistors keep burning out suggests that there is a problem with the power board itself.

It is difficult to say for sure what the problem is without having the device in front of me, but here are a few possible causes:

A faulty power supply: The power supply may be providing too much or too little voltage to the power transistors, which can cause them to overheat and burn out.

A short circuit: There may be a short circuit on the power board, which can also cause the power transistors to overheat and burn out.

A bad solder joint: There may be a bad solder joint on the power board, which can cause the power transistors to overheat and burn out.

If you are comfortable with electronics repair, you can try to troubleshoot the problem yourself. However, if you are not comfortable with electronics repair, it is best to take the device to a qualified technician for repair.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind:

If you are going to try to troubleshoot the problem yourself, be sure to wear safety goggles and work in a well-ventilated area.

Be careful not to touch any exposed circuitry with your bare hands.

If you find a loose or damaged wire, be sure to resolder it properly.

If you find a short circuit, be sure to repair it before replacing the power transistors.

If you are not sure what you are doing, it is best to take the device to a qualified technician for repair.
