What sub for Watt/Puppy 7? - Watchdog vs. WHOW

I currently have a Watt/Puppy 5.1 and the subwoofer WHOW III with the Krell crossover. I'm interested to go to a Watt/Puppy 7.
With a W/P 7 should I still use my WHOW or should I replace it with a Watchdog?

Wilson recommends the Watchdog as best fit for the fast W/P 7, because of greater flexibility and speed.

Anybody did this comparison?
How does a topclass Velodyne perform in comparison to the Wilson subs?

The Watchdog is a better match for your Wilson 7 speakers than the WHOW. The Watchdog is made of the same materials as the 7s: M and X material. The speed of the Watchdog will blend beautifully with your Watt/Puppy without clouding the midrange. My experience with the WHOW is that it is slower and not as good a match with the 7s. The older versions of the Watt/Puppy are not as fast in the low end as your 7s and blend better with the WHOW.

I have Wilson 7s and a Watchdog. Highly recommended.

Thanks all,
Steve, I'm glad that you base your guidance on the very comparison WHOW vs. Watchdog. I understand your point!
Raul, I've looked at your system and I'm very impressed. The fact that you are happy with your Velodyne's shows me that they will be a strong competitor to the Wilson subs.
Again thank you ALL!
