Hi Jeff, On a Yamaha c3 A5 to A6 has about 7 cents of "stretch" in an octave. The A5 E6 fifth has about 3 cents of "stretch". That makes the fifth wide of pure. A5 to D6 has about 2 cents of "stretch" leaving it also wide of pure. These figures are taken from the "demo" piano in Reyburn Cyber Tuner at the fundemental. (or first partial) A6 to A7 has a whopping 18 cents of "stretch".
