Default Suggestions for light requested

I have a 55 gallon 48" long, 18" high (or deep) tank that is lightly
planted with amazon swords. Currently I have about 40 watts of light
which i know is way under rated. I'd like to start DIY co2 or maybe go
to a pressureized system. I would first like to get a decent light and
have been eyeing the ones up at AH supply for quite sometime. I'd also
like to build a DIY enclosure and have a few plans for that.

My question is what is the groups feeling on the wattage or combination
of lights that i should go for? Money is not an option as I've been
saving for quite sometime. Should I do the 2X96 or is that too much
light? Or should I go with even more with a 4 X55?

I'm open to suggestions and thank you for your anticipated responses.

John
