In the 5-limit, superpyth tempers out 20480/19683 (sayo comma). This temperament has a fifth generator of ~3/2 = ~710¢ and 5/4 is equated to nine generators minus 5 octaves. A weak extension [[Jubilismic clan #Bipyth|bipyth]] (10cd&22) tempers out the same 5-limit comma as the superpyth, but with a half-octave period and the jubilisma (50/49) rather than the Archytas comma tempered out.

It also has a weak extension, [[Jubilismic clan #Bipyth|bipyth]] (10cd & 22), tempering out the same 5-limit comma as the superpyth, but with a half-octave period and the jubilisma (50/49) rather than the Archytas comma tempered out.
