In the range of edos from 100 to 200, 183edo is notable as having especially low error in ''all'' [[prime limit]]s from 11 to 29, compared using a variety of metrics (prime error punishments), although it has a bad 19 which causes it to fail to be consistent in the [[19-odd-limit]]. It is however a strong no-19's system, being consistent in the no-19's no-35's 29-prime-limited 45-odd-limit add-43. (The prime 43 is added in the set of odd harmonics due to its essentially perfect accuracy. The harmonic 35 is excluded due to the sharpness of 7 compounding and causing inconsistency in ''some'' cases such as for 39/35.) It can also be considered to model the 2.17.29.43 subgroup with extreme accuracy.

The 183 equal divisions of the octave (183edo), or the 183(-tone) equal temperament (183tet, 183et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, divides the octave into 183 equal parts of about 6.56 cents each, a size close to 243/242, the rastma.

Theory

183edo is notable as a higher-limit system, distinctly consistent in the 17-odd-limit, or the no-19 no-31 33-odd-limit. The equal temperament tempers out the schisma in the 5-limit. In the 7-limit, it tempers out porwell, 6144/6125, cataharry, 19683/19600 and mirkwai, 16875/16807. In the 11-limit, it tempers out 540/539, 1375/1372, 3025/3024, 5632/5625, and 8019/8000; in the 13-limit, 351/350, 676/675, 729/728, 1001/1000, 1573/1568, 2080/2079, 4096/4095, 4225/4224, and 6656/6655; in the 17-limit 442/441, 561/560, 715/714, 936/935, 1089/1088, and 1156/1155; and in the 19-limit 456/455. It is the optimal patent val for 13- and 17-limit mirkat, the 72 & 111 temperament, and an excellent tuning for the rank-3 temperaments madagascar and borneo. It allows essentially tempered chord including ratwolfsmic chords, swetismic chords, squbemic chords, sinbadmic chords, and lambeth chords in the 13-odd-limit, in addition to island chords in the 15-odd-limit.

It is even stronger if 7 is left out of the picture. As a no-7 temperament, it tempers out 5632/5625, 8019/8000, 676/675, 4225/4224, 6656/6655, 936/935, 1089/1088, and 1377/1375.

Prime harmonics

In the range of edos from 100 to 200, 183edo is notable as having especially low error in all prime limits from 11 to 29, compared using a variety of prime error punishments, although it has a bad 19 and fails to be consistent in the 19-odd-limit. It is however a strong no-19's 29-limit system with an essentially perfectly accurate prime 43. It can also be considered to model the 2.17.29.43 subgroup with extreme accuracy.
