Source line attenuator question - Placette

I plan on getting the Placette volume controller sometime later this year. Mainly for my newer solid state setup. However, I have a question:

I have one vintage setup that I use most of the time. Can I also use the Placette volume control as a line attenuator without the "bad" side effects of signal rolloff (seems to be mostly treble in my case) and loss of dynamics?

Or would I hear still hear some of these effects even with the Placette? I've tried various passives. Even some high end controls. And the results are always the same to varying degrees. Heck if it works I'll get two!!
