A signal of a run-length-limited code is reproduced from a recording medium. A transversal filter subjects the reproduced signal to a partial-response waveform equalization responsive to tap coefficients. Detection is made as to whether or not the reproduced signal corresponds to a peak point. Peak-point information is generated in response to a result of the detection. A delay circuit outputs at least three successive samples of the peak-point information. A temporary decision device operates for calculating a temporary decision value of the equalization-resultant signal on the basis of the successive samples of the peak-point information. A difference between the temporary decision value of the equalization-resultant signal and an actual value thereof is calculated, and an error signal is generated in response to the calculated difference. The tap coefficients of the transversal filter are controlled in response to the error signal so as to minimize the error signal.
