Me personally having demoed so many I'd say the Mad Dogs, they seem to have a gap between most Midfi phones like the Momentum, HP100 and others on that level.

I'd agree with that, you can always go to the AlphaDogs later if you want to UG again...

gap down or up?
 
most mid-fi closed $200-300 closed headphones would be considered entry-hi-fi I would imagine. to quick an easy jump in sound quality, just go open at that price range up to $400 like HD600/HD650/HE400.
 
if you are trying to go further up, there is the TH-600 (tho it may not isolate that well), alpha dogs, ath w-series... all the way up to the Ultrasone Sig Pro at $1k. then there is the beyer t5p $1.4k, th900 $1.5k, and finally the audeze lcd-xc $1.8k.
