Abstract
An optical disk replay device for replaying information from an optical disk recorded in a modified constant angular velocity (MCAV) format. The optical disk replay device has an optical head to output a reproduced signal based on the information stored in the optical disk. The signal from the optical head is passed through a series of delay circuits which output delayed signals based on the reproduced signal. Thereafter, a calculating circuit sums, or subtracts, the delayed signals and outputs an intermediate reproduced signal to a band limiting circuit which attenuates the frequency of the intermediate reproduced signal. A control circuit changes the amount of delay imparted by the delay circuits and to adjust the frequency range of the band limiting circuit.
