The search must be fubarred b/c this seems like a simple question that folks must have asked a million times, but I could not find any posts.

Anyway, I'm going to be purchasing surrounds and saw that the QS8s would be the obvious selection but noticed that they run in 6 Ohms vs 8 Ohms of the QS4.

With my Denon 3805R would I be able to run the QS8s even though they are 6 Ohm speakers?

With that receiver, or any other decent brand receiver for that matter, you will have no problems driving any combination of 8ohm, 6ohm, or 4ohm all at the same time.
