2500/2499, the sperasma, is an unnoticeable 17-limit superparticular comma with a size of about 0.693 cents. Among other things, it is the difference between the small septimal sixth-tone of 50/49 and the large septendecimal sixth-tone of 51/50. It also represents the little gap between 17/12 and a stack of two 25/21's.

Commatic relations

This comma is the difference between the following superparticular pairs:

Not to mention some nonsuperparticular but useful relations:

It factors into the following superparticular pairs:

Temperaments
