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.

Unfortunately I live in Southern California. Thank you for the offer though Dorkwad.

and @Brf I live with my parents (I'm a student) and I don't think they'd let me do the mounting, hah.

At this point, I'm considering just buying a block of maplewood or granite and somehow affixing it the floor. My desk is quite wobby as well, and there's not really a place to put a turntable. Does anyone have suggestions for places to acquire such wood blocks for cheap?

Thank you all for your responses. I've decided to purchase a 1'' wood block from Timbernation and am currently looking into footers that are good for carpets.
