54edo’s approximations of 3/1, 5/1, 7/1, 11/1, 13/1, 17/1, 19/1 and 23/1 are all improved by [[Gallery of arithmetic pitch sequences#APS of mérides|APS4/5méride]], a [[Octave stretch|stretched-octave]] version of 107edo. The trade-off is a slightly worse 2/1.
There are also several nearby [[Zeta peak index]] (ZPI) tunings which can be used for this same purpose: 262zpi, 263zpi, 264zpi and 265zpi. The main Zeta peak index page details all four tunings.
The tunings [[ed257/128#54ed257/128|54ed257/128]] and [[ed255/128#54ed255/128|54ed255/128]] may be used for this purpose too, though they may be less accurate than the above methods.
