    optimum luminance value???

    i've recently been tweaking my Sony 55XS955 LCD RPTV & just had a quick question. I've been calibrating my grayscale using a Spyder2 colorimeter & was just wondering what the optimum luminance output value should be at 100 IRE in ft.L. thanks very much for all your help guys. Carmine.
