A salient fact about 159edo is that 159 = 3 × 53, and it shares the same 3rd, 5th and 13th [[Overtone series|harmonics]] with [[53edo]]. However, compared to 53edo, the patent vals differ on the mappings for 7, 11 and 17 – in fact, this EDO has a very accurate 11 and an only slightly less accurate 17. Although 159edo is [[consistent]] up to the 17-odd-limit, it proves to be inconsistent in the 19-odd-limit, with the harmonic | A salient fact about 159edo is that 159 = 3 × 53, and it shares the same 3rd, 5th and 13th [[Overtone series|harmonics]] with [[53edo]].

Although 159edo is [[consistent]] up to the 17-odd-limit, it proves to be inconsistent in the 19-odd-limit, with the 19th harmonic having multiple reasonable mappings. | ||
