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?

Jvogt and Dirtyragamuffin are correct.

If two cartridges were equal in every other respect, the one with a more extended frequency response would be "better". But since virtually nothing about an AT and a Grado is equal, the issues Jvogt raised are much more important.
