: '''ArrowHead:''' Similar to [[22edo]], 27 is basically [[superpyth|the opposite of meantone]] (specifically [[19edo]]) when it comes to 5 vs. 7, with subminor and supermajor thirds and sixths in places where minor and major thirds and sixths usually are. Criminally underrated and underutilised for what it is. Fifths are very bright and shimmery but not [[wolf-interval|wolf-sounding]] like [[5edo]] is. Its [[5-limit]] minor and major thirds are more familiar and forgiving than 22edo, and it has a very good [[13-limit|13th harmonic]]. Overall a great place to explore [[xenharmonic|xenharmony]] with temperaments like [[Tetracot]].

: '''Aura:''' Not going to lie, given how underexplored this EDO is, I felt it necessary to try working with a [[159edo]]-based retuning of it.  Judging from my experience with that, it should suffice to say that working with Superlocrian in this EDO is another interesting experience.

: '''Bozu:''' Comte [[hyperpent]]. Another one with tons of usable tonal possibilities that seems to get little actual use.
