In 17-limit just intonation, 32/17 is the small septendecimal major seventh, as well as the 17th subharmonic octave-reduced. Measuring about 1095¢, it is the mediant between 15/8 and 17/9, the "large septendecimal major seventh". Its inversion is 17/16, the "large septendecimal semitone".

There exists a disagreement in different notation systems on whether 32/17 should be notated as a major seventh or a diminished octave. In Functional Just System, it is a major seventh, whereas in Helmholtz-Ellis notation, it is a diminished octave.
