Downloads

Current version of Audacious is core: 2.3.0/plugins: 2.3.0.

Audacious is comprised of two components, audacious core (the player itself), and it's plugins collection. You need both in order to have a working Audacious install. Please note that both the core and plugins are released asymmetrically of each other and a unified release only happens if API changes are necessary between stable versions.
