Since 125 factors into primes as 5<sup>3</sup>, 125edo contains [[5edo]] and [[25edo]] as subset edos. Being the cube closest to division of the octave by the Germanic {{w|long hundred}}, 125edo has a unit step which is the cubic (fine) relative cent of [[1edo]].

Using every 9th step of 125edo, '''86.4-cET''' (also known as '''1ed86.4{{cent}}''', and sometimes '''13.888edo''' by approximation) still encapsulates many of its best-tuned harmonics, such as the 3rd, 7th, 9th and 11th. It has been voted "monthly tuning" multiple times on the [[Monthly Tunings]] Facebook group. This subset is closely related to [[22edt]], another tuning that closely approximates [[42zpi]].
