There is no specified height for how high a mounting bracket should be when mounting the LG 75" Class 85 Series QNED 4K UHD Smart webOS TV (2024), Model # 75QNED85TUA as this can be influenced by several factors. To avoid craning your neck or slumping your shoulders manufacturers and home entertainment enthusiasts alike recommend mounting a TV at eye level for optimal viewing, but the best TV height for you can potentially depend on TV wall mount type, screen size, and other factors. The answer to how high should a TV be mounted sometimes varies slightly for those reasons, but you can safely stick to these rules of thumb. For tailored comfort, however, you can actually factor your height, and the height of fellow household members, into your TV’s height from the floor. You’ll find a more exact center point for your TV mount by measuring the distance from the floor to each household member’s eye level when sitting. Most experts use the center of the TV screen as the main point of reference, no matter the screen size. Unless you’re mounting a TV for just one person to use, keeping the center of the TV at a comfortable viewing height for most people should be the goal. While TV size doesn’t always affect mounting height, a TV’s dimensions are important to optimal viewing distance. If you have a large, 65-inch or 75-inch TV, it may be uncomfortable to watch if your seating is too close to the wall it’s mounted on, regardless of how high or low it’s mounted. Not all TV room chairs are guaranteed to be the same height. An open floor plan with counter-height bar stools, bar-height stools, and a sofa, for example, can complicate TV mounting height. Counter-height bar stools are higher off of the floor than sofa seats. If you are mounting the TV above an entertainment center or shelf, you should maintain a height gap of about 4 to 6 inches between, which is about the same distance you’d hang a mirror above a dresser. According to the Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers. you shouldn’t position it so high that viewers need to tilt their heads up more than 35 degrees from eye level in order to see the top of the screen. A tilting wall mount can help to tilt the TV’s screen downward so you can position it higher than eye level without causing discomfort or neck strain, if necessary...^Ivan.
