Vintage vs newer phono cartridge


I have a new monster cable alpha 2 low output mc cartridge. Should I open and use it or sell it and buy a more recent cartridge? How much would I have to spend to do better?
Thanks

If you have a decent phonostage, it should sound great-barring any deterioration of suspension.
I remember hearing it in the late 80's.
