I consider the dubs on these to be as good as if not superior to the original recordings.

Appleseed
Baccano
Cowboy Bebop
Fullmetal Alchemist (either one, but preferably the first adaptation. Al's all bad in Brotherhhod)
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Hellsing Ultimate
Monster
Steamboy (then again, anything with Patrick Stewart and Alfred Molina is total win for me)
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (not the best dub, but its the only language it comes in)

Anything by Hayao Miyazaki
Anything by Mamoru Oshii

Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad.
Welcome to the NHK (though I really like Greg Aryes, he seems to be hit or miss, though the rest are good as well)
Gurren Lagann

i can second FMA,
can also second the comment about Al, I got used to it, but yeh its not great.

Can also second Baccano, though i haven't seen the whole series.

Every Saturday I tune into the Durarara dub on adult swim and I do have to say, its NOT THAT BAD! (considering I hate most dubs)

You should try it!

Baccano definitely (Miria was unbearable to watch in Japanese for some reason).

I also had ALOT more fun with Hetalia dubbed. You just need those over-the-top accents with that kind of anime.

I generally think Disney's dubs of Ghibli movies are top-notch (except for Castle in the Sky. They do NOT sound 10! And Grave of the Fireflies also wasn't as good as the Japanese version, though still passable)

Kino's Journey
Romeo x Juliet
Paranoia Agent

all had good dubs in my opinion.

My favourite dubs are:

Baccano!
Black Lagoon
Death Note
Haibane Renmei
Koi Kaze
Monster
School Rumble
Suzumiya Haruhi


Out of those, though, I'd say Baccano! and Black Lagoon are the ones most suited to a dub over a dub. The others would be good either way (I can definitely say that Haibane Renmei ticks both boxes in VA quality).

Personally I thoroughly enjoyed:
Bleach
Death Note
Fruits Basket
Ghost Stories (fucking hilarious)
Mnemosyne
Mushishi
Ouran High School Host Club
Samurai Champloo
Suzumiya Haruhi
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
Tetsuwan Birdy Decode (aka Birdy the Mighty Decode)
Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo
and my personal favorite, Yu Yu Hakusho
Of course aside from Ghost Stories the originals for all of these are also very good.

Dubs I did not particularly care for:
Angelic Layer
Cardcaptor Sakura
Highschool of the Dead
Zero no Tsukaima
Harems don't exist in America. If one guy is constantly surrounded by beautiful girls, then he's probably the gay friend.

According to AnimeAnimericaPodcast that I found on YouTube, Code Geass is one of the Top 10 for Best Anime English Dub and I agree!
