The '''Pythagorean augmented 2nd''', '''19683/16384''', may be reached by stacking 9 3/2's and octave reducing. It differs from the classic minor third, [[6/5]], by the [[schisma]], and, as a result, the Pythagorean augmented second is in fact rather consonant. According to [[User:Aura|Aura]], while 19683/16384 may take the place of the classic minor third in chords, its status as an augmented second means that it has a different function in terms of voice-leading. | The '''Pythagorean augmented 2nd''', '''19683/16384''', may be reached by stacking 9 3/2's and octave reducing.

According to [[User:Aura|Aura]], while 19683/16384 may take the place of the classic minor third in chords, its status as an augmented second means that it has a different function in terms of voice-leading. According to Vector, it is itself a minor third due to being within the range of other accepted minor thirds, and its status as an augmented second is only in the context of a Pythagorean diatonic system. | ||
