Considered below are myna, nusecond, oolong, vines, kumonga, cypress, bisemidim, casablanca, amigo, gilead, supersensi, and ~~cobald~~, sorted by increasing [[badness]].

Considered below are myna, nusecond, oolong, vines, kumonga, cypress, bisemidim, casablanca, amigo, gilead, supersensi, and cobalt, sorted by increasing [[badness]].

Since {{nowrap|(6/5)<sup>3</sup> {{=}} (126/125)⋅(12/7)}}, these temperaments tend to have a relatively small complexity for 6/5. They also possess the [[starling tetrad]], the 6/5–6/5–6/5–7/6 versions of the diminished seventh chord. Since this is a chord of meantone temperament in wide use in Western common practice harmony long before [[12edo]] established itself as the standard tuning, it is actually three stacked minor thirds and an augmented second, contrary to the popular belief that it is four stacked minor thirds.
