I keep reading that there's a sound equalizer built into Windows 10, but I can't find it. From what I gather, there should be a tab labeled "Enhancements" on my Speakers' Properties screen. I show: "General", "Level", "Dolby Audio", "Advanced", and "Spatial Sound".
I'm sure there's a setting in the reg that will make it all fonzie.
Any thoughts?

Google gives this:
How to find the default Equalizer on Windows 10
Locate the speaker or sound icon on your PC.
Right click on it and select the playback device option.
A dialog named sound should appear.
Locate the default speakers or headphones in the playback tab.
Right click on the default speakers, then select propertie
Did you look on You Tube? There are some there.
However, many users prefer some other program to do that job for playback of music files. My favorite is Win Amp.

Yes, I checked all of the Googles.
Would love some real suggestions, if anyone has anything.

I don't see an "enhancements" tab for either my Sound Blaster ZXR nor my motherboard audio. Of the ones that have an enhancement tab, the only one that has an "equalizer" in the list of options is the Digital output for my Motherboard Audio.
I think the audio "enhancements" are specific to each driver. Additionally, I suspect depending on the software and audio device you are using it might be elsewhere. All my Sound Blaster's various options, including an equalizer, are part of it's software suite and not part of any Windows control panels.

That was always my presumption, but when I went looking for 3rd party eq's, so many posts referred to a built-into-Win-10 option that I believed 'em.
