PS Audio Ultralink II- Quick query

Were all of these made with HDCD capability? If not, how can one tell one from the other?

TIA

I don't really know how to tell the difference per se. I know that I own one that doesn't have the HDCD. I heard both and I preferred the non-HDCD one. But I can't say that would be the case with everyone.

I just tried a HDCD CD but it didn't light up. The user manual didn't mention this feature either. You can call PS Audio for the answer.
