'''[[Ed6|Division of the sixth harmonic]] into 186 equal parts''' (186ED6) is related to [[72edo|72 edo]], but with the 6/1 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is about 1.2347 cents stretched and the step size is about 16.6838 cents. It is consistent to the [[17-odd-limit|18-integer-limit]], and significantly improves on 72edo's approximation to 13.

== Theory ==

186ed6 is closely related to [[72edo]], but with the 6th harmonic rather than the [[2/1|octave]] being just, which results in the octaves being stretched by about 0.757{{c}}. Like 72edo, 186ed6 is [[consistent]] to the [[integer limit|18-integer-limit]]. While it tunes 2 and [[11/1|11]] sharp, the [[3/1|3]] and [[5/1|5]] remain flat as in 72edo but less so, and the [[7/1|7]] is practically pure. Moreover, the [[13/1|13]] and [[17/1|17]] are significantly improved compared to 72edo, although the [[19/1|19]] becomes worse.

=== Subsets and supersets ===

Since 186 factors into primes as {{nowrap| 2 × 3 × 31 }}, 186ed6 contains subset ed6's {{EDs|equave=6| 2, 3, 6, 31, 62, and 93 }}.
