EDO systems in a Fibonacci style recurrence beginning with 7 and 12 are successively better approximations to this ideal.
This can be approached by successively taking soft child MOSes of pentic (2L 3s, 5L 2s, 7L 5s, 12L 7s, 19L 12s, etc). Each time, the generator range "narrows in" on the golden diatonic generator.
 
Equivalently, EDO systems in a Fibonacci style recurrence beginning with 7 and 12 are successively better approximations to this ideal.
 
The process behind constructing golden meantone can be [[Golden sequences and tuning|generalized]] to other MOSes.
