Subwoofer to go with Wilson Maxx II's

I'm in the market for a Sub to compliment my Maxx II's. I thought I wanted a powered Watchdog-and still may. I read a review that said it may be-choke-inadequate. Never thought I'd hear anything written about Wilson's with that word in the same sentence. In it's defense, reviewer was referring to below 20hz sound in home theater. I like movies, but my main emphasis is music. Any recommendations or comments about the Watchdog?

I've heard the MAXX2 extensively, and I can't imagine needing a subwoofer with those speakers for music or movies.

For home theater use, where you have a dedicated subwoofer channel (e.g. 5.1), a sub might be called for, though I think it would take quite a sub to mesh well with MAXX2s. In that case I like the JL Audio F212. I talked a friend into one, and the F212 can produce enough clean output with a 20hz test signal to make you truly nauseous. The F212 is a monster.

But if I owned the MAXX2s a sub would be the last thing on my mind.
