Either male or female is good. Males are meant to be more tame and grow a bit bigger and two litter-brothers will always be friends, although females do fight a bit more than males because in one season a female is bad tempered and the other female has to keep out of the way ( so she will be lonely). The season occurs every sixteen days, some females never argue though.

Overall I think two males( boars) are the best option!

Female guinea pigs are easier to take care of because male guinea pigs need to have an operation when they start to smell bad.
