1600edo is a very strong 37-limit system, being distinctly consistent in the 37-limit with a smaller relative error than anything else with this property until 4501. It is also the first division past 311 with a lower 43-limit relative error. One step of it is the relative cent for 16.

1600's divisors are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, 64, 80, 100, 160, 200, 320, 400, 800.

In the 5-limit, it supports kwazy.

In the 7-limit, it tempers out the ragisma, 4375/4374.

In the 11-limit, it supports the rank-3 temperament thor.
