Katie Melua - Piece By Piece has a high quality recording. Sounds pretty flawless on Woo Audio WA6 with Denon D5000.

Just want to name some from my bank of music, in order from most subjectively flawless to less-but-still-quite flawless (linked with what I think is the best track in the album, because let's face it, sometimes one part of the album is more flawless than other parts combined):
The Beatles - Abbey Road
Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited (No link for this because of the capitalist bastards patrolling youtube)
Porcupine Tree - Fear Of A Blank Planet (Though this album was just evenly awesome, apart from "My Ashes", which dips a little bit)
Pink Floyd - The Wall
Massive Attack - Mezzanine
 
Now it gets really subjective (no longer in order):
How To Destroy Angels - How To Destroy Angels
Brad Mehldau - Elegiac Cycle (Can't find "Elegy for William..." on youtube (maybe I didn't look hard enough, but I can't be asked))
Shpongle - Nothing Lasts But Nothing Is Lost
Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse - Dark Night of the Soul
Hooverphonic - The President of the LSD Golf Club
 
Plus albums with songs to die for:
Norah Jones - Come away with me - One flight down
Norah Jones - Not too late - Sinking Soon, My dear Country
Shpongle - Tales of the inexpressible - Around the world in a tea daze
Jolie Holland - Escondida - Old fashion morphine
Antimatter - Saviour - God is coming
 
Note: I have a headache, so my judgement may or may not be impaired

Posted in the obnoxious size it deserves!
Like many in my age group, I remember when this came out. What a breath of fresh air!
Today it may seem a bit dated, but boy what an album when it came out.
