As far as I am aware, no.

But it's easy to add an in-line pad to drop the output down to whatever you
need - just a simple voltage divider (two resistors) will do.

I think it's actually a feature that the audio level coming out the back is
not affected by the front panel knobs.

The feature I don't like on the O2 is, for some reason, you don't get
stereo out the back (that is, both receivers).  On the 565, you did.
