The waveform equalizing device includes: an FIR filter for generating an equalized signal pattern y(i, n) on the basis of equalization of a waveform of the reproduced signal pattern u(i, n); a Viterbi decoding circuit for detecting a path metric difference s(n) between a correct path determined as a survivor path and an error path which fails to survive the correct path in Viterbi decoding based on the equalized signal pattern y(i, n); a target register for setting a target value ds for the path metric difference s(n); and a tap coefficients update circuit for adapting the equalization according to an error of the detected path metric difference from the target value. The tap coefficients update circuit adapts equalization properties so that the mean square error is minimized, thereby achieving a satisfactory result in lowering the error rate.
