should I suspend a floor-standing turntable?

Hey all, I have a Denon DP-300F turntable and I'm worried about vibrations. I live on the top floor of an apartment complex, and the floors are pretty bouncy. Would it be better to place the turntable on say, an end table or a desk rather than on the floor?

Thanks for reading. I wish I could place it on a wall-mounted stand, but I'm not allowed to mount anything to the walls here.

Wall shelf worked great for me in Germany.
Germans don't use drywall .

It varies, in apts electric is usually in half-moon pipe strips running up the wall painted same color as wall, you hardly notice them. Most rewire every 20 years.most sockets look like Hubbel grade .
Average German house has 2-3 foot space between outside and inside walls with cylindical terra-cotta round pipe between them.Walls are plaster over wood.
I live near one of the most up-scale suburbs in the twin cities and it amazes me that houses going for 750K use same
drywall as a 100k condo.

Yes, I owned a house like that in VT .Oil man loved us.
Back in the day you had to have money to plaster, in rural areas at least.
