You say the front wall is an outside wall which, as load-bearing, makes it inherently better damped than non-load bearing. Less to worry about there.

As the wall is being re-done there is the opprtunity to take full advantage of the A&M Hybrid brackets which are used by A/V consultants routinely.

Once you have an adequately supported, sufficiently deep floating shelf in place, various isolation strategies may be tried. Making the shelf itself
1 1/2" thick maple would provide the best possible foundation.
