I use individually measured Munsell Book of Color swatches to evaluate
calibrated display
It's not all perfect but the general tendency of color appearance is in the
same direction.
It all depends on light illuminating swatches.
The venerable Macbeth ColorChecker is good for display evaluation -- I never
leave home without it!

I wonder how good / bad calibration / profile has to be in order for a human
eyes to notice that something is out of wack with a given display. What all
the numbers really mean?
