Description : Why does adding dc vice ac bias voltage to the input signal result in a poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)?

Last Answer : With dc bias, the SNR is poor because only a small portion of the magnetism curve is straight enough to use, thus the output signal is weak compared with the natural tape hiss.

Description : How does dc bias added to the input signal correct the distortion in the output signal?

Last Answer : The dc bias moves the input signal away from the step in the magnetism curve. This prevents the input signal from crossing the zero-point of the magnetism curve.
