Another way to get at the file is:
   /tuning/files/Mike's Consonant (hopefully) Scales/

   Look in that directory and then download the "Golden Chord.mp3" file to see how well (I swear) that a 7 tone scale from the golden ratio tuning mixes together (even if all 11 tones at once, I agree, sound like crap).

    I changed the directory name slightly.
Just look under the tuning/files section for the "Mike's tuning" folder and then look for the goldenchord.mp3 file for my best shot at making a consonant scale under the Petr's "golden ratio" tuning.
