The ennealimmal–enneadecal equivalence continuum is a continuum of 5-limit temperaments which equate a number of ennealimmas ([1 -27 18) with enneadeca comma ([-14 -19 19). This continuum is theoretically interesting in that these are all 5-limit microtemperaments.

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy (2・3−27・518)n ~ (2−14・3−19・519). Varying n results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to ennealimmal as n approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite n, the continuum describes the set of all 5-limit temperaments supported by 171edo (due to it being the unique equal temperament that tempers both commas and thus tempers all combinations of them). The just value of n is approximately 3.2669545024..., and temperaments having n near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.
