The '''breedsmic-syntonic equivalence continuum''' is a continuum of 7-limit temperament families which equate a number of [[2401/2400|breedsmas (2401/2400)]] with a [[81/80|syntonic comma (81/80)]]. This continuum is theoretically interesting in that these are all 7-limit temperament families supported by [[Meantone family#Squares|squares]] temperament. In addition, 81/80 and 2401/2400 are the smallest 5-limit and 7-limit [[superparticular]] intervals to be tempered out by [[31edo]].

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy (2401/2400)<sup>''n''</sup> ~ 81/80. Varying ''n'' results in different temperament families listed in the table below. It converges to [[Breedsmic temperaments|breedsmic]] as ''n'' approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite ''n'', the continuum describes the set of all [[7-limit]] temperament families supported by squares (due to it being the unique rank-2 temperament that tempers both commas and thus tempers all combinations of them). The just value of ''n'' is approximately 29.82025..., and temperaments having ''n'' near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.
