pros and cons ECM8000 vs CM-140 or CM130

Im a bit confused after reading some of the basics on the REW site. Can someone clarify please before I go out and make a SPL meter purchase.

I intend to use REW in a recording studio where I have access to microphones and preamps.

The REW site says: "Alternatively, a microphone (with preamplifier to produce line level) may be used to make measurements, but an SPL meter is still required to provide a reference SPL figure against which to calibrate REW's SPL display."

Does this mean that I can use any cheap SPL meter to calibrate my studio microphone for use within REW?

Can I purchase the cheaper CM-130 instead of the more expensive CM-140?

Thanks!
