MPix uses sRGB but you will still need a calibrated monitor to ensure the colors you see are the colors they print.

Mpix doesn't do color correction either. Or is that MPix pro?

MPix will do color correction if you check (or uncheck) the box. I never let anyone do it, so I'm not sure which it is.
