Decibels - simple audio player - LinuxLinks
We evaluated Decibels using Manjaro, an Arch-based distro, as well as Ubuntu.
With Manjaro there’s a package in their Official Repositories, as well as a package in the Arch User Repository (AUR). The advantage of using the package in the Official Repositories is that you don’t need to build the software.
