128:160:192:225, a 5-limit German sixth chord, is found rooted at the ♭II (1615) and ♭VI (85) of the duodene.

225/128 is usually considered an augmented sixth rather than a minor seventh; however, it is often tempered in a way that makes this chord indistinguishable from certain kinds of dominant seventh chord. For example, in septimal meantone it is tuned identically to the much simpler harmonic seventh chord 4:5:6:7, and in meantone tunings that also temper out the Pythagorean comma (such as 12edo and its multiples) it is tuned identically to 36:45:54:64 and 20:25:30:36.
