What _app_ do you use for best experience of mp3 music? As I said, on my
machine the best sound I think is that of Celluloid. If you have an app
that works better than Celluloid, or a setting that results better
sound, I'm interested to know about, cause listening to music for me is
an important part of my life.

From a technical point of view, the best mp3 player is mpg123:

Madplay is a close second:

These are both command-line programs.

But, on GNU/Linux, any mp3 player will do a good job because all/most
of them use the same libraries such as from libmad or libmpg123.

Regarding audio settings, alsamixer gives access to all soundcard
parameters.  There are other mixers but I don't know their names.
Alsamixer does everything.  Why use anything else?
