1700edo is only [[consistent]] in the [[5-odd-limit]], and there is a large relative delta on the 3rd harmonic. From a regular temperament theory perspective, its best usage is as a 2.9.11.21.23.31 [[subgroup]] tuning because all other harmonics up to 29th have more than 25% error. Nonetheless, it tunes the 323 & 2023 temperament [[leaves]] in the 17-limit on the patent val.  
1700edo is only [[consistent]] in the [[5-odd-limit]], and there is a large relative delta on the [[harmonic]] [[3/1|3]]. It has a reasonable approximation to the 2.9.15.21.11.13.17.23 [[subgroup]], or if the harmonic [[5/1|5]] is desired, the 2.9.5.21.11.23 subgroup. Otherwise, it can be considered in the 2.9.21.11.23.31 [[subgroup]] (not including either 5 or 15). Nonetheless, it tunes the 323 & 2023 temperament [[leaves]] in the 17-limit on the [[patent val]].  


One step of 1700edo is the [[relative cent]] for [[17edo]]. It has been named '''iota''' by [[Margo Schulter]] and [[George Secor]].

Since 1700 factors into {{factorization|1700}}, 1700edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 4, 5, 10, 17, 20, 25, 34, 50, 68, 85, 100, 170, 340, 425, and 850 }}.
