The only dubbed I like is Lucky Star. Although Konata STILL doesn't sound smartass.

there was actually a fandub on Youtube of the first 4 minutes of the first episode that sounded better than the one they made.

it really depends on the dub itself (FLCL, FMA, etc.) are fine, but for the most part the subs tend to be better acted

In general, dubbed is better. Subbed means you can't multitask without having to go back to read what you missed.
If you are multitasking, then why are you watching? Just do the work you have to do.
What's wrong with doing more than one thing at once?

And there's nothing wrong with a dub if they use good voices and don't translate it horribly.
For example, Utawarerumono and Gurren Lagann

Also, the subbed versions come out within a few days of the raw release in Japan. It takes much longer to dub.

Sometimes even less. I think one of the Lucky Star episodes were subbed about 5 hours after it was aired.
