>From what I learned there are two display devices normal (sRGB) and
wide gamut. My monitor is a wide gamut device. If you load the (Dell)
profile for the device Windows is wide gamut enabled. The same goes
for loading the AdobeRGB profile.
Once I load a wide gamut profile the Chrome browser is displaying two
versions of a sRGB jpg.
Apparently you need a colorimeter to calibrate sRGB and a
spectrophotometer to calibrate wide gamut. I don't understand the
difference (yet).

I set everything to sRGB and disabled wide gamut. Now I see two
identical renderings in Chrome and identical renderings across LR, all
other browser and ipad/iphone.
