Audio/Video Demagnetizer



Recording heads, capstans, and metallic guides can become magnetized from repeated use.   The resulting magnetic field on these parts results in a very slight erasure of a tape each time you play it.  Over time, this degrades the quality of the video and audio. The HD-880 demagnetizer will remove this magnetism.   Instructions included.   (Note:  Do not use around video or audio tapes - the demagnetizer can partially erase recorded tapes when it is plugged in.)
