There is a RK KR 5U4G for sale right now on USAM. He had two, I bought the brand new one a few minutes ago.
BTW, my understanding is, there are no RK editions for sale anymore, unless you can find someone with new old stock (unlikely). Those were limited editions made a while ago. At least that is what a dealer told me.
The KR-300B Riccardo Kron Anniversary Editions are big and bold, but with more top end than the WE300B. Paired with KR-5U4G Riccardo Kron Anniversary Edition rectifiers they're bass monsters. Having said that, they're nowhere near as clean and precise as the Elrogs. In my mind, it goes:

I'm sure I'm forgetting something in there, but that just shows how memorable they are....
