triptolemaic augmented sixth
[sound info]
125/72, the classic augmented sixth is 5-limit just interval of about 955 cent. It can be obtained by widening 5/3, the classic major sixth, by 25/24, the classic chroma. It is also the Pythagorean augmented sixth (59049/32768) flattened by three syntonic commas, which lends itself to the term triptolemaic.
In any kleismic system, it is tuned to an exact semitwelfth, tempered together with 216/125.
Approximation
This interval is especially close to the 39th step of 49edo.
