I need to run some HDMI over 75' and all the cables I'm finding on Amazon give conflicting reviews. Can any of your people in the biz recommend a good brand that can send 4K over 75 feet? 1 way w/o arc is fine.

Any active HDMI that length is going to be expensive. We sell Kramer active HDMI cables in commercial applications for anything 50' and over, they work great and can be powered via micro USB if signal is still not strong enough.

Get HDMI over ethernet adapters and run a CAT6 cable your 75 feet.

For that long a run, you're looking at fiber optic HDMI for 4k/60hz.

You could TRY a really thick gauge ACTIVE HDMI cable, but at 75' I think you'll be out of luck. I run a 45 foot active monoprice ultra cable and am able to get 4k@60hz.

This is my 45 foot cable:
Monoprice Ultra

Actually got it for way less than $40 too, ($16 with coupon and shipped free).

At 75' you're going to have to empty the pocketbook either way I think. Whether you go Ethernet or fiber optic.
