== Theory ==
152edo is a strong [[11-limit]] system, with the [[harmonic]]s [[3/1|3]], [[5/1|5]], [[7/1|7]], and [[11/1|11]] slightly sharp. It [[tempering out|tempers out]] 1600000/1594323 ([[amity comma]]) and {{monzo| 32 -7 -9 }} ([[escapade comma]]) in the [[5-limit]]; [[4375/4374]], [[5120/5103]], [[6144/6125]] and [[16875/16807]] in the [[7-limit]]; [[540/539]], [[1375/1372]], [[3025/3024]], [[4000/3993]], [[5632/5625]] and [[9801/9800]] in the 11-limit. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for the 11-limit rank-2 temperaments [[amity]], [[grendel]], and [[kwai]], and the 11-limit rank-3 temperament [[laka]]. 

It has two reasonable mappings for [[13/1|13]], with the 152f val scoring much better. The 152f val tempers out [[352/351]], [[625/624]], [[640/637]], [[729/728]], [[847/845]], [[1188/1183]], [[1575/1573]], [[1716/1715]] and [[2080/2079]], [[support]]ing and giving an excellent tuning for amity, kwai, and laka. The optimal tuning of this temperament is [[consistent]] in the [[integer limit|15-integer-limit]]. The [[patent val]] tempers out [[169/168]], [[325/324]], [[351/350]], [[364/363]], [[1001/1000]], [[1573/1568]], and [[4096/4095]], providing the optimal patent val for the [[13-limit]] rank-5 temperament tempering out 169/168, as well as some further temperaments thereof, such as [[octopus]]. 

Extending it beyond the 13-limit can be tricky, as the approximated [[17/1|harmonic 17]] is almost 1/3-edostep flat of just, which does not blend well with the sharp tendency from the lower harmonics. The 152fg val in turn gives you an alternative that is more than 2/3-edostep sharp. However, if we skip prime 17 altogether, we can treat 152edo as a no-17 [[23-limit]] system with the 152f val, where it is strong and almost consistent to the no-17 [[23-odd-limit]] with the sole exception of [[13/8]] and its [[octave complement]]. It tempers out [[400/399]] and [[495/494]] in the [[19-limit]] and [[300/299]], [[484/483]] and [[576/575]] in the 23-limit. 

[[Paul Erlich]] has suggested that 152edo could be considered a sort of [https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_3038.html#3041 universal tuning].

=== Prime harmonics ===
{{Harmonics in equal|152}}

=== Octave stretch ===
152edo's approximated harmonics 3, 5, 7, 11 can all be improved, and moreover the approximated harmonic 13 can be brought to consistency, if slightly [[stretched and compressed tuning|compressing the octave]] is acceptable. [[241edt]] is a great example for this. 

=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 152 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 2<sup>3</sup> × 19 }}, 152edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 4, 8, 19, 38, 76 }}.

* 152et (152fg val) has lower absolute errors in the 11-, 19-, and 23-limit than any previous equal temperaments. In the 11-limit it is the first to beat [[130edo|130]] and is superseded by [[224edo|224]]. In the 19- and 23-limit it is the first to beat [[140edo|140]] and is superseded by [[159edo|159]]. 
* It is best at the no-17 19- and 23-limit, in which it has lower relative errors than any previous equal temperaments. Not until [[270edo|270]] do we find a better equal temperament that does better in either of those subgroups.
