108:135:160:192 is a dominant seventh chord found on the dominant scale degree (V or 3⁄2) of a diatonic scale with the second degree tuned a comma lower than in Zarlino (10/9 instead of 9/8), such as in left-handed nicetone. It combines a 5/4 (5-limit) major third with a 16/9 (3-limit) minor seventh, creating a 64/45 tritone between the two. Since each of the steps relates to at least one other by an interval in the 9-odd-limit, it is a 9-odd condissonant chord.
Because this chord contains a 40/27 grave fifth instead of a 3/2 perfect fifth, it has more dissonance than would be present in the closely-related 36:45:54:64.
In meantone temperament, this chord is tempered to be the same as 36:45:54:64 and 20:25:30:36.
