    The Duet comes packaged in a cardboard box with ample pictures and a nice list of the features printed on the side. Inside the case is wrapped in plastic and nestled between two styrofoam end caps. Normally when I receive a case, it is packaged inside another case for safety during shipping. This one however was just drop shipped to me as it was.  When I received the case, the packaging was pretty beat up but the case itself survived unscathed.
