[[225/128]] is usually considered an augmented sixth rather than a minor seventh; however, it is often tempered in a way that makes this chord indistinguishable from certain kinds of [[dominant seventh chord]]. For example, in [[septimal meantone]] and [[marvel]] it is tuned identically to the much simpler harmonic seventh chord [[4:5:6:7]], and in meantone tunings that also temper out the [[Pythagorean comma]] ([[12edo]] and its multiples) it is tuned identically to [[36:45:54:64]] and [[20:25:30:36]].

If [[128/125]] is tempered out, this chord is tuned identically to both [[256:320:375:450]] and [[20:25:30:36]].
