Probably not, just make sure that it's a good quality attenuator (not necessarily expensive). Ideally it would be a simple voltage divider made up of appropriately chosen resistors but I haven't really looked into commercial offerings. I'd suggest searching the forums a bit to see what you can find, I'm sure there are threads that discuss options.

Edit: a quick googling yielded a company called Rothwell Audio that would appear at first glance to make exactly the product that I was trying to describe. I have no experience with them or their products so you might want to do more research before buying.
