-Why do you want to use something that is not specified correctly? It
just doesn't seem smart to me. Just use the stock wall-wart, until you
can find a true 5V linear psu.-

That said, if your going to be stubborn about this...It depends how the
regulation is performed on the SB3. If there is onboard regulation,
which I think is the case, it may be safer to feed the higher voltage
(6V) than a lower voltage. In the case of going with lower voltage, you
run the risk of voltage dropout, which could damage the chips. The
higher voltage would be no problem in this case (except generating a
little more heat, but I wouldn't think that is a major problem.) Of
course, the best thing to do is use a 5V source, as a I said above.
