AAC/MPEG-4 frequency response

Anyone else noticed this?  When I play AAC/MPEG-4 files, the "spectrum 
analyser" in Nero Wave Editor and in WinAmp seem to indicate that there are 
no frequencies beyond about 10-12k being played.  When I play MP3 files, the 
entire "spectrum analyser" seems to be used.

Is there some sort of low-pass filter used in the Nero AAC/MPEG-4 file 
encoder, so that I'm losing the top-end of all my songs?  I have noticed 
that my M4A files on my iPod seem to be lacking in treble (more 
bass-oriented) -- especially on Rush CDs, there are no real cymbal crashes.
