The character of 14edo does not well serve those seeking low-[[limit]] JI approaches, with the exception of [[Subgroup|5:7:9:11:17:19]] (which is quite well approximated, relative to other JI approximations of the low-numbered edos). However, the [[ratio]]s 7/5, 7/6, 9/7, 10/7, 10/9, 11/7, 11/9, and 11/10 are all recognizably approximated, and if you accept that 14edo offers approximations of these intervals, you end up with a low-complexity, high-damage [[11-limit]] temperament where the [[comma]]s listed later in this page are [[tempered out]]. This leads to some of the bizarre equivalences described in the second "Approximate ratios" column in the table.

14et has quite a bit of [[xenharmonic]] appeal, in a similar way to [[17edo|17et]], on account of having three types of 3rd and three types of 6th, rather than the usual two of [[12et]]. Since 14et also has a recognizable 4th and 5th, this makes it good for those wishing to explore alternative triadic harmonies without adding significantly more notes. It possesses a [[triad]]-rich 9-note [[mos scale]] of [[5L 4s]], wherein 7 of 9 notes are [[tonic]] to a subminor, supermajor, and/or neutral triad.

This notation uses the same sagittal sequence as [[9edo#Sagittal notation|9-EDO]], is a subset of the notations for EDOs [[28edo#Sagittal notation|28]] and [[42edo#Second-best fifth notation|42b]], and is a superset of the notation for [[7edo#Sagittal notation|7-EDO]].
