166edo is [[consistent]] through the [[13-odd-limit]], yet its principle interest lies in the usefulness of its approximations. In addition to the 5-limit [[amity comma]], the equal temperament tempers out [[225/224]], [[325/324]], [[385/384]], [[540/539]], and [[729/728]], hence being an excellent tuning for the [[rank-3 temperament]] [[marvel]], in both the [[11-limit]] and in the 13-limit extension [[hecate]], the [[rank-2 temperament]] [[wizard]], which also tempers out [[4000/3993]], and [[houborizic]], which also tempers out [[2200/2197]], giving the [[optimal patent val]] for all of these. In the [[13-limit]] it tempers out 325/324, leading to hecate, and [[1573/1568]], leading to marvell, and tempering out both gives [[gizzard]], the 72 & 94 temperament, for which 166 is an excellent tuning through the [[19-limit]]. | 166edo is [[consistent]] through the [[13-odd-limit]], yet its principle interest lies in the usefulness of its approximations.

166edo (as 83edo) contains a very good approximation of the [[7/4|harmonic 7th]], of which it is only flat by 0.15121 cent. | 166edo (as 83edo) contains a very good approximation of the [[7/4|harmonic 7th]], of which it is only flat by 0.15121 cent. | ||
