I can't believe nobody's mentioned Yu Yu Hakusho.

That's my favorite anime dub ever.

Funimation's best dubs have always been for series that aren't dragonball.FMA,Baccano,space dandy,spice and wolf,panty and stocking etc. All blow there work on dragon ball out of the water. Better writing ,better acting and more research done.

Yu Yu Hakusho is a notable one.

John Burgmeier (Tien) as Kurama, Chuck Huber (#17) as Hiei (well done character btw), Christopher Sabat (Vegeta) as Kuwabara (I just love this character!)

Dameon Clarke (Cell) voices young Toguro. Badass character I tell ya. Honestly he should have been reserved for later in the series.

Pretty much everyone from Ocean's dub is a fantastic VA in whatever other work they've done; X-Men, Death Note, Zoids, Gundam Wing. So much talent there.

I think Chris Sabet is better at Zoro than he is Vegeta or Piccolo.

The Ocean VAs that appeared in Black Lagoon, pretty much. To this day, it's one of the top English dubs I've ever heard.

Not an anime, but Dameon Clarke is amazing as Handsome Jack in Borderlands 2.

On the Bang Zoom side, mostly everything Jamieson Price touches is a delight. But two of my favorites from him are the Count of Monte Cristo and Rider (fate/zero)
