In a magnetic head comprising a read/write head and an erase head constructionally integrated with each other, the closed magnetic circuit of the erase head is arranged to be higher in magnetic reluctance than the closed magnetic circuit of the read/write head, whereby a magnetic flux to be drawn by the erase gap is reduced so as to prevent the leakage of the magnetic flux to the read/write head side.

Magnetic head

A magnetic reproduction circuit is which includes: a Hilbert transform filter and a delay element each adapted to receive a signal reproduced from a magnetic recording medium; a variable amplifier connected to an output terminal of at least one of the Hilbert transform filter and the delay element; an adder for adding outputs of the Hilbert transform filter and the delay element wherein the outputs are fed to the adder with or without passing through the variable amplifier for varing their amplitudes; a detector for detecting a magnetic transition point of the magnetic recording medium; and a magnetization ratio detector for finding a ratio of a magnetization of the magnetic recording medium in the moving direction to a magnetization of the magnetic recording medium in a direction perpendicular the to moving direction, wherein an amplification factor of the variable amplifier is varied using the magnetization ratio found by the magnetization detector as a parameter.
