Having a flat tendency, 16et is best tuned with [[stretched octave]]s, which improve the accuracy of wide-voiced JI chords and [[rooted]] harmonics especially on inharmonic timbres such as bells and gamelans, with [[25edt]], [[41ed6]], and [[57ed12]] being good options.

What follows is a comparison of stretched- and compressed-octave 16edo tunings.

* Step size: NNN{{c}}, octave size: NNN{{c}}
Stretching the octave of 16edo by around NNN{{c}} results in improved primes NNN, but worse primes NNN. This approximates all harmonics up to 16 within NNN{{c}}. The tuning 25edt does this.
