The 16 most stable triads of 22-TET, from empirical data, notated in Ups and Downs. Triads represent inversional equivalence classes and are written in normal form, with a root of zero. The second and third numbers in the triple represent the lower and outer intervals in degrees of 22-TET respectively. Triads are written in the inversion for which the outer interval is the smallest, and, in the case that two inversion have the same sized outer interval, that the lower interval is the smallest.
