Depending on how accurate their profile is, the spyder may not create a better profile. The spyder2 is a bit older than current spectrometers. You can create profile with the spyder and try it. Sometimes I've even had better results just tweaking by hand and looking at some charts on the monitor. I always feel calibrating with a tool is probably the best way to go because you have control over the results. At least if you use good color management system software. Most monitors cover sRGB fairly well but struggle with Adobe RGB. The monitor was probably designed for sRGB since it is mostly standard, so I would stick with that.
