Timely and proper flying height adjustment is achieved using a controller, which is designed for a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus that does not use a magnetic head having a heating element for flying height adjustment without any modification. A head amplifier includes a write amplifier for applying a write current to a write head element, a read amplifier for amplifying a read voltage output from a read head element and outputting a read signal, a heating element driver for applying a heat generating current to at least one heating element for adjusting a flying height, and a heat controller for controlling the heating element driver.
