I am sure there are other differences, but if there are what would they be and would they be enough to make me opt for the 706 over the 606
The upscaling for the 706 is great if you are going to be using in the future with a TV that has 1080 other wise it is not needed and the Audyssey MutiEQ is superior to the Audyssey 2, these 2 components make the 706 worth the extra money IMO.

So far speakers go my recommendation from before holds up, M22's for mains and a VP100 center with QS4's to keep costs down. If you can afford the QS8s then I would go for them, as they do offer a slightly better match up(5.25" drivers vs 4") and can be played back louder for a larger room if you ever get one.
