Will it fit / 75-inch above a fireplace

Will a 75-inch TV fit above a fireplace?
Without its stand, a 75-inch TV here measures 65.2 to 65.94 in wide and 37.36 to 38.5 in tall, according to the makers' spec pages. A clear patch of wall at least 66 x 39 in above the mantel takes any of the 11; the narrowest, the TCL 75X11L, needs 65.2 x 38.5 in.
Every 75-inch TV with a published body size
These are the dimensions "without stand" that each maker prints — the box that hangs on the wall. They are listed narrowest first. TCL and Vizio publish a full width, height and depth for their 75-inch sets on the pages read for this site; the other 26 75-inch models listed on VESA Fit (LG 75UT7590PUA, LG 75QNED80TUC, LG 75QNED82AUA, LG 75QNED8MBAA and others) have a pattern and weight on record but no body size, so they are left out here.

Width and height on the wall
The spread between the narrowest and widest 75-inch body is 0.74 in: the TCL 75X11L at 65.2 in against the TCL 75A300W at 65.94 in. A geometric 75-inch 16:9 picture is 65.4 x 36.8 in, and the bodies differ from it by their frames and by how each maker rounds its class size. If a chimney breast or built-in shelving limits the width, measure between the obstructions and compare with the width column, not with the screen size.
Height matters as much above a mantel, because the TV's bottom edge has to clear the shelf and anything that stands on it. The tallest 75-inch body here is 38.5 in and the shortest 37.36 in. Add the gap you want between mantel and TV to that figure to get the wall height you need below the ceiling or crown moulding. If the wall is shorter than about 37.36 in, a 65-inch set (bodies up to 32.95 in tall) is the next size down.
What 75 inches means over a mantel
A 75-inch set over a fireplace usually spans most of the chimney breast. At up to 38.5 in tall, it also takes a big share of the wall height: add the mantel's height and the gap above it, and on a standard ceiling the top edge can end up close to the cornice. Measure mantel to ceiling before choosing between this and a 65-inch set.
How far it stands off the wall
The thinnest body at this size is the TCL 75X11L at 0.9 in deep; the thickest is the Vizio VQD75R-1004 at 2.92 in. On a wall mount the TV sits that far out plus the mount's own profile, which the mount maker prints on its box — a fixed or "low-profile" plate adds the least, a tilting or full-motion arm the most. Over a mantel, a tilting mount is the usual way to angle a high screen back toward the seats.
The TCL 75A300W is not VESA compatible: TCL's page says the A300W is "Not VESA Compatible" and ships with its own flush wall mount, so no hole pattern applies.
Weight on the chimney wall
Without the stand these sets weigh 42.99 to 86 lb, with a median of 54.2 lb; the heaviest is the TCL 75X11L. A mount's rating has to cover the TV's weight, and a full-motion arm needs more margin than a fixed plate because the load sits further from the wall. Chimney breasts are often brick or stone; fix the mount with the masonry anchors its maker supplies for that wall, and keep drill holes away from the flue.
Neighbouring sizes
One size down, the 65-inch bodies here are 56.46–57.17 in wide (65-inch above a fireplace). One size up, the 85-inch bodies are 74–74.72 in wide and up to 43.5 in tall (85-inch above a fireplace). From a seat 10 ft 2 in away a 75-inch screen fills the SMPTE 30° view; mounting it high doesn't change that distance, but the screen's centre ends up above eye level, so measure from where you sit.
