In [[7-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], 7/5 is a narrow ~~[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritone~~ tritone] measuring about 582.5¢. It is a noticeable 17.5¢ away from the 600¢ half-octave (square root of 2) tritone of [[12edo]] and every even-numbered [[EDO]]. It represents the difference between [[7/4]] and [[5/4]].

In [[7-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], '''7/5''' is a '''narrow tritone''' (or '''Huygens tritone''') measuring about 582.5¢. It is a noticeable 17.5¢ away from the 600¢ half-octave (square root of 2) tritone of [[12edo]] and every even-numbered [[EDO]]. It represents the difference between [[7/4]] and [[5/4]].

7/5 is notable for its low [[Harmonic Entropy|harmonic entropy]], and is often reported to sound more consonant than the half-octave tritone; indeed it appears in the 4:5:6:7 tetrad that forms the basis of consonance in 7-limit JI. Its inversion is [[10/7]], which measures about 617.5¢, and these two septimal tritones differ by the [[superparticular]] interval [[50/49]], about 35.0¢. Systems which temper out 50/49 will equate 7/5 and [[10/7]], usually to the 600¢ half-octave.

Another just tritone is the [[3-limit]] 729/512, 611.7¢, and this is literally a tri-tone, since it is (9/8)<sup>3</sup>, or three "whole tones". Yet another is [[45/32]], about 590.2¢, which appears in the [[5-limit]] (inversion is [[64/45]]). See also [[13/9]], [[18/13]], [[17/12]], [[24/17]], [[25/18]] and [[36/25]].
