However, it should be noted that when we are hearing logarithmic phi, we are in fact hearing 2**(phi) ≃ 3.070. While this interval can still be used in a way or another as a useful tone in a piece of music, it doesn't correspond to anything. When it comes to acoustic phi, we are truly hearing the mathematical constant phi ≃ 1.6180.

Acoustic constants are genuine numerical values with a mathematical and physical meaning, whereas logarithmic constants lack such a basis [[Logarithmic constants VS acoustic constants|and are therefore fake]].
