No EQ setting on Maximus XIII board ??

As title said. I've only just notice why the EQ setting isn't working ! 
Some reason, this board's Realtek software, the EQ is only for Digital Audio or SPIDF I guess ?? 

But I'm not using that, I'm using the 3.5mm jack to power my Logitech Z623 speakers.
Seems like this board doesn't even have the Sonic Studio software ( if not mistaken, I try checking the Download page for this board, nothin. It only have the Realtek Audio Driver ) 

I wanna confirm, so I can't adjust my EQ if I'm using 3.5mm output ??? 
I cannot stand flat EQ, it sounds like shit....why did ASUS do this ?? I mean my previous board, Crosshair Hero VI even have the Sonic Studio to adjust EQ....

Here you can refer to the pictures below. Look careful on the Left Side option. 
Speakers is the output I'm using.

there's a dedicated driver for the eq in web for such stuff.
Mine didn't work until I installed it. (Z390-F strix)
Go to downloads in your mobo website

I've already check it, there isn't any. 
I mean like for my previous Crosshair Hero VI it does. 
It have both Realtek and Sonic Studio, both completely different installs. 
But now it only have Realtek wtf....I mean seriously, I paid 650$ this board.....please tell me I can have an EQ....
Here are some screen shot. One of them is the older Crosshair VI Hero board download page. Description did mention about Sonic Studio. 
I check Crosshair VIII Dark Hero doesn't have it either....

Have you tried in front audio port?
Some motherboards have better front port audio compared to the rear IO. Its different between brand and model on whether the front is better or if its the rear.

I haven't, but it will be for my 2.1 speakers. I thought the front is only for headphones ?
