Kirnberger II is the same as Kirnberger I, except that instead of having a single wolf fifth that is flat by a syntonic comma, it has two that are flattened by half a comma, between the D–A and A–E notes. This leaves 9 pure fifths and one that is flat by a schisma, placed between C# and Ab, resulting in three pure major thirds, two half comma flattened 397 cent ones, 3 pythagorean and 4 that are flat by a schisma.
