Anyone know the correct procedure for Demagnetizing heads on a Nakamichi cassette deck please?

I have the wand-type with rubber covered end.

Thanks.

That's what I used. Long time ago. :) In fact, I have it in my hand. I was just going through some old boxes. Isn't that the craziest!



Here is what Nak recommends: DM-10

Keep your tapes AWAY! lol number one step. you basically just make contact w/ any metal parts the wand can reach, i've never had to get more into than that. i think the standard recommendation is to de-mag about every 15min of play/rec time. i usually just do it at the start/finish of a session if i'm using tape.
