Question Neutering?

I have two female rabbits, Spayed, but refuse to get along. My eldest rabbit doesn't mind living alone but my other one does. She seems lonely and wants a friend to groom.
Instead of getting another female I thought about getting a male. Now since she is spayed is it still essential to get the male neutered? My sister had a male rabbit in the past that she never got neutered and he was fine, no spraying, no aggression etc. But I guess it depends on the personaility.
I know that spaying females reduces the chance of oviarn(sp?) cancer. So would neutering a male reduce any illnesses?

Oh also, She is about 9-10months old. Would a younger or older male be better? And what size would the cage have to be? At the moment she lives in a 4ft by 4ft cage. She is a drawf (well thats what they said..) and weighs in at about 6lb.

Thank you! xx
