It has a distinctly sharp tendency, in that the odd primes from 3 to 19 all have sharp tunings. It tempers out 15625/15552 in the 5-limit; 4000/3969, 6144/6125, 10976/10935 in the 7-limit; 540/539, 896/891 and 1375/1372 in the 11-limit; 325/324, 352/351, 364/363 and 625/624 in the 13-limit; 256/255, 375/374  and 442/441 in the 17-limit; 190/189 and 361/360 in the 19-limit.

Because it tempers out 540/539 it allows [[swetismic chords]], because it tempers out 325/324 it allows [[marveltwin triad|marveltwin chords]], because it tempers out 640/637 it allows [[huntmic chords]], because it tempers out 352/351 it allows [[minthmic chords]], because it tempers out 364/363 it allows [[gentle chords]], because it tempers out 676/675 it allows [[island tetrad|island chords]] and because it tempers out 1575/1573 it allows the [[nicolic tetrad]]. That makes for a very flexible system, and since this suite of commas defines 13-limit 121et, it is a system only associated with 121.</pre></div>
