[Elecraft] Trade off PR6 vs PR6-10 pre-amp

I have the PR6 mounted on the K3. Did successful JT65 6M moon bounce
with 11 element antenna,1000 watts, 110 foot BuryFlex coax, and
appropriate switching. So this setup worked.
I note that the specification for the PR6-10 has about 2dB more gain
than the PR6. The MDS and dynamic range specs are the same.
Would the 6 meter performance with the K3 using the PR6-10 be better or
worse than the PR6 because of:
1. Wider pass band? More opportunity for out of band noise?
2. More gain? Impact on overall dynamic range and noise figure?
My real question is should I sell my PR6 and get a PR6-10? I do not
want to lose anything on 6 meters but perhaps could stand some
improvement on 10.
