Stepped attenuator - making a step between levels

I'm using a 25k Gold Point stepped attenuator. There is a situation where at times I need to use a step "in between" a step.

On the chart, between steps 4 and 5, the difference between the two resistors is 83 ohms. Could I add an inline 41 ohm resistor to capture that "in between" volume level.

Or should I go with a pre attenuator by cutting it down by one or two db's?
