[[Ennealimmal]] temperament tempers out the two smallest 7-limit superparticular commas, 2401/2400 and 4375/4374, leading to a temperament of unusual efficiency. It also tempers out the [[ennealimma|ennealimmal comma]], {{monzo|1 -27 18}}, which leads to the identification of (27/25)^9 with the octave, and gives ennealimmal a period of 1/9 octave. While 27/25 is a 5-limit interval, two period equates to 7/6 because of identification by 4375/4374, and this represents 7/6 with such accuracy (a fifth of a cent flat) that there is no realistic possibility of treating ennealimmal as anything other than 7-limit. Its wedgie is {{multival|18 27 18 1 -22 -34}}.

Aside from 10/9 which has already been mentioned, possible generators include 36/35, 21/20, 6/5, 7/5 and the neutral thirds pair 49/40 and 60/49, all of which have their own interesting advantages. Possible tunings are 441, 612, or 3600 EDOs, though its hardly likely anyone could tell the difference.
