It depends what you mean by "need". Most colorimeters will be improved
by using a correction matrix made for a specific display and colorimeter
combination. Whether this is necessary depends on your judgement.

Most colorimeters can have modified calibration matrices written back to them.
This allows for the possibility of re-calibrating them, or calibrating them
for a particular situation. Argyll doesn't have that particular facility,
since I really don't want to be accused of bricking an instrument !
So in Argyll the correction is done in the software.
