Denon does miss some detail but is more musical than the red , easier to listen to . I ran both side by side in two TT setup for a few months .Jazz

Ortofon 2M Red and Denon 110 Is there a big difference in sound quality??
I currently own a U-Turn Basic TT with an Ortofon 2M RED. I am considering changing to a Denon 110 high output moving coil. I have checked with the U-Turn customer service which claims the Denon 110 would be a very good match. I use a Moon 110LP with a CJ PV-14SE line stage
The Ortofon sounds good and better than expected. I had a 2M Blue a few years ago on a Rega P3-24 table and did not like it because the cartridge picked up too much surface noise which the RED does not. . Even though,,I have a modest LP collection, I think I am missing several things with the Ortofon, like better sound staging and separation of instruments.
