Re: C clarinet case

I think the R&S cases are mostly pretty similar and I have the small bass clarinet one. It's not the most protective case in the history of cases, and I wouldn't say it's as protective as something like a BAM (I'm very familiar with both models), but it's much closer to that than to a gig bag. Mine has many hours of walking with it, driving with it (on the very bumpy local roads) in the back seat and the boot of a car (usually with a bunch of other bags and stuff around it) and regular use. So far zero issues. I'm not that much more careful with than I was when I used a Wiseman case. A soprano would would have even less potential issues in a case like this.

If I had to fly I would take the Wiseman case, which I can sit or even stand on with the clarinet in it (which I wouldn't recommend with any case, but I've done it just to show it's possible).

So I would recommend R&S but I'm only posting this to give another perspective on their cases. I got it mainly because of its light weight. Soprano clarinet cases are pretty small and light anyway so there isn't much of an advantage to a R&S over other cases anyway.
