A magnetic head for reading-out information magnetically recorded on a magnetic recording medium in a waveform varying between two different phases. The magnetic head includes at least one block of high magnetic permeability disposed adjacent to and directly facing a surface of the magnetic recording medium to be read-out so as to provide a magnetic path for passing therethrough magnetic flux emanating from the magnetic record on the magnetic recording medium. A magnetic material member is disposed adjacent to the at least one block so as to cause the magnetic flux emanating from the magnetic record on the magnetic recording medium to pass therethrough and is responsive to transition of the magnetic flux corresponding to variation from one phase to another phase in the waveform representing the recorded information so as to provide a predetermined physical effect. Further, a detecting arrangement is provided for the detecting the predetermined physical effect.

An equalizer equalizes a reproduced waveform reproduced by a thin film magnetic head by reproducing information recorded magnetically on a medium. In the equalizer, the reproduced waveform is delayed to a position of an undershot portion, and is attenuated to an amplitude corresponding to a magnitude of the undershot portion, and the resultant waveform is superposed on the reproduced waveform, to thereby eliminate the undershot portion. Furthermore, by superposing a waveform obtained by inverting the reproduced waveform and amplifying or attenuating the inverted waveform, on the reproduced waveform at a half power position thereof, the width is narrowed.
