Turntable Cartridge- Higher Frequency Response


I have a Technics turntable that I am using a Audio Technica cartridge with a frequency response of 15-27,000Hz.I have a chance to buy a Grado cartridge that has a frequency that produces 20-46,000Hz and better quality than the $50 Audio Technica. Would the sound improve greatly with this cartridge?

The average human hears up to about 20,000KHz. The frequency response certainly does not determine how good a cartridge will sound, as Jvogt was saying.

Grado carts are quite good, but they can hum in certain rigs so beforeyou buy, make sure it will work for you. What arm and turntable are you using?
