Super Spokes have a minimum recommended tension of about 95 kgf on the front, no sweat, but they spec a minimum tension of 80 kgf on the non-drive side. With King hubs on alloy wheels (tension ratios change a small amount with ERD changes), that's going to equate to about 155 kgf on the drive side. I don't see that being a viable thing for most aluminum rims, and there are plenty of hubs which can't do this (I believe Tune hubs spec a max of 100 kgf). CX Rays work very very well. Lasers work outstandingly well at 1/3 the price, but they are more time consuming to work with than CX Rays due to windup.
