14-EDO has quite a bit of xenharmonic appeal, in a similar way to 17-EDO, on account of having three types of 3rd and three types of 6th, rather than the usual two of 12-TET. Since 14-EDO 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 5L4s, wherein 7 of 9 notes are tonic to a subminor, supermajor, and/or neutral triad.

It is also the largest edo whose patent val supports [[titanium]] temperament, tempering out the chromatic semitone (21:20), and falling toward the "brittle" (fifths wider than in 9edo) end of that spectrum. Titanium is one of the simplest 7-limit temperaments, although rather inaccurate (the 7:5 is mapped onto 6\14, over 70 cents flat). Its otonal/major and utonal/minor tetrads are inversions of one another, which allows a greater variety of chord progressions (since different inversions of the same chord may have very different expressive qualities). It forms enneatonic modes which are melodically strong and are very similar to diatonic modes, only with two mediants and submediants instead of one. Titanium[9] has similarities to mavila, slendro, and pelog scales as well.

Despite being so heavily tempered, the tetrads are still recognizable and aren't unpleasant-sounding as long as one uses the right timbres.
