Are the Empyreans different enough from the Elites for it to make sense to own both? Besides the money factor, of course.

I wouldn’t say so. I’d go with the Elites and then spend the $3k elsewhere 😃. I could be perfectly happy with the Empyreans, though, if the Elites didn’t exist.

FWIW I demo’d both briefly and I thought the Empyreans were way too veiled in the midrange, similar to the LCD2 Classic I briefly owned. The Elites sounded much clearer while still being easy to listen to with great bass, similar to the LCD-X which I now own :).
