My cheap head demagnetizer that I got on ebay arrived today (Realistic
231X) and I was wondering if all demagnetizers are supposed to make a
horrendous racket. This one barely makes any noise at all. If I put it
next to my ear and turn it on, I can hear a faint buzzing, but that's
it. Besides messing up your tapes with improperly degaussed playback
heads, is there any way to tell if this thing's working? I know, don't
buy cheap crap on ebay, but I figured that something as basic as this
would be ok.
