'''128/81''' is the '''Pythagorean minor sixth''', created by stacking four instances of [[4/3]] and [[Octave reduction|octave-reducing]]. In contrast to the more typical [[8/5]]with which it is conflated in [[meantone]]this interval has a [[harmonic entropy]] level roughly on par with that of [[12/11]]. Thus, some would argue that it is functionally an imperfect dissonance.
