What enneagram types are compartible?
And which ones clash?
Is there any logic to it like with socionics?
Ugh

Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?
I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

Enneagram is a very personal and very negative system. It's about self-improvement and doesn't have anything to do with anyone except individuals. It's not meant to be used for relationship compatibility. You might be able to say "x type might like *something* in y type", but there are no hard-and-fast. For instance, most sites that try to make some sort of comparison say that 7s go fantastically with 3s or 2s. I cannot stand 3s, and couldn't be in a relationship with a 2 no matter how healthy.
It's a lot more personal. For instance, I know I get alone well with 1s, 4s, and 9s. Does that mean every 7 will? By no means. It's just my personal preference. I'm sure other 7s would get along great with 3s, 8s, or 2s.
If you're looking for compatibility, stick with socionics. If you want to have an idea of what you can expect from a certain person/type or how you can improve your personal well-being, then enneagram is the right system for you to be looking at.
People ultimately come to accept the person for who that person is regardless of type. Knowing a person's type doesn't mean you won't like them, it just means that that you can't expect them to give you something they can't. Take a couple who walked into our office with a hurt cat; the gf came up to me (sensing that I am a compassionate person) asked me "would you please give my bf moral support? I don't know how to do this" she sat there on the bench away from him and couldn't say or do anything to comfort him.
I did sit with the bf and looked at him cry and get nervous about having possibly hurt his cat. He did receive support and comfort from me. No matter how much he likes his gf, she won't be able to do what I can.

Generally speaking, the same outlook triads (reactive, competency and positive) are compatible.
Obsequium amicos, veritas odium parit
It's really difficult to say because the 4 & 7 sounds more like living the good life while the 1 & 7 sounds more purposeful in that the two can achieve great things together as long as they don't hit each other's weak spots. So I might be going back and forth because I can't decide between the good life and the higher cause. If that makes sense. I sort of want both.
I tend to think 1w9 for you, but 4w5 is right up there, too. Stay tuned.

I'm a 7 dating a 4 and it is usually the "good" life. relatively.
I was sure about 4w5 for the longest time, but there is a pretty pronounced preoccupation with perfectionism and integrity and some other things that really suggest 1w9. Maybe I should dig up what I found yesterday regarding what 1s and 4s find annoying about 7s. That might shed some light.

I've always enjoyed the company of 3w4s and 8w7s.
My best friend is 1w9, then another very close friend is 9w1 and my girlfriend is 9w1 too. I also get along well with other 7s except if there's any kind of power imbalance. Generally my 1 friend is great for doing anything together, we are actually not that different in our free time except that he complains a lot about everything.
Supervisory relationship I get along best with 1s (seems strange, but they like that I'm a bit light hearthed but still focussed and proactive, and I like that they take care of the details). Get along the least with 8s and 3s.
