Ultimate pyth. It has an unfathomably perfect 2.3, and I say that in an almost literal sense. It is very much fathomable, obviously: the beat period of 665edo's fifth is 5077906.80060 s*Hz with two sawtooth waves in perfect sync, which would be around 3 hours, 12 minutes 21 seconds at f=440. 3 fucking hours. That's what it would take you to hear the beating of 665edo. It is, for all intents and purposes, unfathomable to focused human perception. Or, you could make a 3-hour track out of this.

However, this is not why you would use 665edo, as this essentially allows you to extend the precision limit of the chain of fifths from very good to ''extreme,'' by adding the mercator (+53 fifths) and an equalized qian comma (+306/-359 fifths) into the mix, also working as a schisma. Yes, it has a bad prime 11, but it is surprisingly good in the rest of primes up to the 27-odd-limit, which is very surprising for a convergent. I will likely never use this, but since I do greatly care about the chain of fifths as a theoretical construct, I care about this ''theoretically''. B

Undecupling 665edo results in what I believe to be one of the potentially theoretically most robust yet precise JI-oid systems. Splitting the equalized qian comma in 11s greatly amplifies the accuracy of this edo and allows you to keep the unfathomably accurate chain of fifths as a strong backbone, and thirteenths of a qian comma serving as nanoalterations. I will likely never use this due to the insane precision it demands, but I have nothing other than respect for this behemoth of an edo. A
