The syntonic-enneadecal equivalence continuum is a continuum of 5-limit temperaments which equate a number of syntonic commas (81/80) with the 19-comma ([-30 19).

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy (81/80)k ~ [-30 19. Varying k results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to meantone as k approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite k, the continuum describes the set of all 5-limit temperaments supported by 19edo (due to it being the unique equal temperament that tempers both commas and thus tempers all combinations of them). The just value of k is approximately 6.376..., and temperaments having k near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.

This continuum can be expressed as the relationship between 81/80 and the enneadeca ([-14 -19 19). That is, (81/80)n ~ [-14 -19 19. In this case, n = 3k - 19.
