However, when using a slightly [[stretched tuning|stretched octave]] of around 1216 [[cents]], 23edo looks much better, and it approximates the [[perfect fifth]] (and various other [[interval]]s involving the 5th, 7th, 11th, and 13th [[harmonic]]s) to within 18 cents or so. If we can tolerate errors around this size in [[12edo]], we can probably tolerate them in stretched-23 as well.

Stretched 23edo is one of the best tunings to use for exploring the [[antidiatonic]] scale (and its 9-note extension, the [[superantidiatonic]] scale), since its fifth is more [[consonant]] and less "[[Wolf interval|wolfish]]" than fifths in other [[pelogic family]] temperaments.

What follows is a comparison of stretched- and compressed-octave 23edo tunings.
