I would say Cowboy Bebop, the redub of Akira, Trigun, and Spirited Away are some of the best I've heard. I didn't think Samurai Champloo was that bad, which seems to go against popular opinion.
 
Cowboy Bebop. Most Miyazaki stuff (Well, ok, MononokeHime and Spirited Away really). Trigun. Evangelion. ...pretty much everything else I watch in japanese.

I actualy prefer the Cowboy Bebop dubbed to non dubbed. Odd.
 
My favorite anime dubs are the videos that people make with linkin park in the background.

Dub of Akira was horrible for me. They sounded like they were whining all the time and some of the lines were really lame.

I liked the DBZ dub Vegetas voice (Chris Sabat) FTW

agreed I hate having to search through 16 pages of crap on youtube just to watch a music video of a song I like.
 
This post isn't strictly relevant to the topic... but that's why I'm writing it. You see, if I commit a wrongful act now, I can then ask Jesus for forgiveness and get in his good books. Nice plan, eh?
 
I thought DBZ and Trigun had some technically shitty dub. The voice acting on alot of parts was very...lacking in emotion. You could tell they were reading a script. With that said I'll have to say Cowboy Bebop is ranked REALLY high on the list, as is Scrapped Princess...they tie each other for top rank.
 
Oh, I just thought of one noone's said already. Fruits Basket! ^.^

But just the first episode, I think. I had it on a promotional anime disc or something, and a friend and I were in hysterics over it. The jokes were delivered just right, and the characters were voiced in just the right way, which is to say over-the-top and all too aware of it (which seemed to be the way the characters were originally intended aswell, so no harm done). I downloaded the same episode in jap with subs and it had none of the effect of the dub, so go figure.

Anyway, same friend says he checked out the rest of the series and it mostly blew. Sounds like it pulls a Trigun and goes for the OMG drama, which sucks cause it looked like a decent OTT silly comedy type dealie. Bleh, so hard to find good, no bullshit anime (especially stuff that doesn't adhere strictly to cliches and stereotypes nowadays).
