One Super high end cable or mid level set?

Has anybody out of choice decided to allocate all of their cable budget on one super high end model (say for just as an example a Nordost Vallhalla or Odin interconnect) whilst keeping there other cables at a much cheaper range or evan stock.
As opposed to the presumable much more common practice of buying a more 'balanced' mid level but complete cable loom ( again just as an example Nordost Red Dawn)
I suppose the question is can an 'incredible' never to be upgraded single cable produce a more magical ( or even equal) sound ,( supposing of course that it is of suitable quality to reveal these qualities.) than the compromised but more balanced set?

I could see putting extra into speaker cables because they carry the signal from the amp to the speakers and that part needs to be done right (IMO) but not Valhalla and stock cables for IC.

That is too much difference.

Never use stock cables, at least buy something like cheaper Morrow or Blue Jean for IC and then get a good speaker cable.

My two cents...
