Turntable - On the Wall or to the Floor?

I'm in the process of buying a new analog front end. It was recently recommended to me that I make every effort to put my turntable on a stand that's tied into my "real" wood suspended floor rather than put it on a wall.

I have a 1920 farm house and the floors are loose, wavy, and I can't find a level spot. I once tried my Billy Baggs stand with my old turntable setup and this was scary.

My walls are 2x6 and plaster. I was going to use a Target shelf that's secured to the studs. Doesn't this method also tie the TT to the floor since the studs and floor joists are tied? Any suggestions?

SHIMS! We carpenters ALWAYS use wood SHIMS,
to say level out a floor for a wall for
studs, or to even out a space in between
the stud frame and the door frame to
make them level.
You can get these at Menards, H.Depot,
lowells, etc.
