The 14 equal divisions of 5/1 system divides the 5th harmoinc or pentave into 14 equal steps of 199.022 cents each. It is essentially a compressed 6edo whole tone scale with a tempered octave of 1194.13 cents.
Theory
14ed5 is the first ED5 which can reasonably be described as a 5.7.11 subgroup temperament, excluding harmonics 2 and 3 as implied by pentaves. The best approximation of 7/5 is near 2edo's tritone at 597 cents, while the best approximation of 11/5 is a major ninth of 1393 cents, also being the square root of five.
