Lunar Pool Table
The Pool Table of the Future
(5)
It should come as no surprise that we have a bias for orange things, especially when they look this cool. iPod integration is the new black of product design, so it’s only natural it would show up in the pool table. What’s unexpected is the Lunar’s integration of 80w speakers and built-in LED powered, under-cloth illumination. We’re all for the enhanced lighting, as it’ll definitely help us see our shots through the haze of cigar smoke, and, frankly, when have we ever said no to more features.
As for the speakers, music and pool go together like Dusty and lawn equipment, so it’s a natural evolution in our book. Eric, of course, is banned from putting on a acapella during the game.
Priced at $745, the Lunar is definitely not an impulse buy, but is still reasonably priced compared to other tables. That cost includes 48mm spots and stripes balls and 2 two-piece pool cues measuring 48 inches, so once it arrives you should be all set.

If you can't afford this for your game room, you can always pick up the NES version - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Pool
For some reason I keep looking for a disco ball to be on the top of this thing… But great man cave addition.. nothing like playing pool to Muddy Waters and the like.
i don't know. i think pool tables are one of those pieces that should continue being a traditional, big, masculine, wooden piece. something that compliments a scotch, a cigar and a loosened tie. this thing looks like it would be more comfortable sitting at space camp somewhere. don't get me wrong, there's nothing bad about space camp. i just don't think it's the place to play pool. ha!
I'm with you Al. I'll stick with my Showood table and turntable.
I have to agree with Rory. I like the idea of integrated features but I'd like to see a more traditional look as well.
The orange is cool, though I'm a bit old school when it comes to my pool tables.
As for orange felt, well that's an entirely different subject…
I like it in orange. Also, I know that its a lot more than a regaular table, but what else can you buy for that money these days?
Thanks
