RE:  The tariff classification of a Mini Component Stereo System
     from Malaysia.

Dear Mr. Heck:

     In your letter dated August 7, 1996  you requested a tariff
classification ruling.

     This issue concerns the importation of the Yamaha CC-75 Mini
Component Stereo System.  It consists of an AM/FM receiver and
amplifier with clock/timer, CD player, dual cassette deck
player/recorder, signal processor, and two speakers.  You state
that each component has a specifically designed connector which 
affixes to each component. 

     The applicable subheading for this will be 8527.32.5010,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for reception apparatus for radiotelephony, ...: other
radiobroadcast receivers, ...: not combined with sound recording
or reproducing apparatus but combined with a clock: other:
incorporating a digital clock or clock timer.  The rate of duty
will be 4.8 percent ad valorem.   

     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177
of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

     A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above
should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time
this merchandise is imported.  If you have any questions
regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Phil
Carabetta at 212-466-5672.



                                        Sincerely,
