As Willi mentions, there are fundamental limitations to GIF that make it
hard to get really high-quality output.

It sounds like ffmpeg is not really the best tool to use for this, but
you might be able to make it a bit better by e.g. tweaking the
dithering.  You're probably never going to get something really
attractive though.

I did a google search for:   ffmpeg options dither -audio

...which returned a few promising looking hits.
