i would have to say:
1. Hercule Poirot
2. Sherlock Holmes
3. Nero Wolfe
4. Father Brown
But i like the classic stuff.
Harry Bosch is probably my favorite of the modern era. The hardboiled American detectives like Sam Spade never did it for me.

I liked encyclopedia brown as a kid.
I like the Davinci Code guy, if you count him. He’s not a detective but he solves mysteries.

My favorite lately Is definitely Bernie Günther.
Hoping the rumors of an HBO series are true.

Nero Wolfe
If you like audiobooks check out these old time radio shows:
The Adventures of Nero Wolfe -- stars Sydney Greenstreet (The Maltese Falcon) as Wolfe. My favorite Wolfe series in any medium (IMHO, aside from the isolated TV movie-pilot starring Thayer David in the late '70s, the TV attempts at Wolfe have been mediocre at best)
Hercule Poirot -- Unfortunately only a handful of episode from this entertaining WWII-era series survive. One of the episodes is a rewrite of Death On The Nile, with the action transferred to... a freighter on Lake Michigan!?
Lagniappe:
"The ABC Murders" -- an adaptation of the novel starring Charles Laughton (who had played Poirot on stage in the late '20s), done for the great radio show Suspense in 1943 -- but with the character of Poirot completely removed!
