Vibration Theory - Isolate or Drain?

Given that a CD Player or Transport has quite a bit of internally generated energy from the motor, is it best ti deal with vibration issues by coupling the player to a surface with spikes or cones? or decouple the player from the surface beneath it with spongy materials? Any consensus on the best approach here?

To couple or decouple , I'm sure this will be settled quickly .

Solid base under components , solid bass response . Balls , cones , springs , spikes , under gear , better detail , air . Thats not a consensus just an observation . Ya right a consensus on an audio forum ? ! ? !
Carbon fiber cones and platform makes my transport happy , but my A.R.C Dac 8 insists on direct contact with a heavy wood base . Go figure .
