Default Attenuate -10db output

I'm looking for a low cost way to slightly attenuate a -10db stereo
RCA output from an FM tuner.

This is a small cable studio's playout system. There is no mixer:
Several devices (4 streams from a video server, several tape and DVD
decks) feed into a routing switcher, then a compressor/limiter, then
into modulators and out into the cable system. It is important to have
all devices at the same approximate level; While they are all -10db,
the only significant difference is the tuner. It is noticeably louder
than all the other sources. The tuner is a Rolls RS80, and it has no
adjustment for output level (except the front-panel headphone jack,
which I am currently using. The protruding cable looks bad, and I want
to use the rear stereo RCA jacks.

I could use a cheap Behringer mini-mixer, but I'd rather find one of
those little "audio solutions" boxes that will give me control of the
level, definitely down, but perhaps up also. Any ideas?
