Answer
Certainly the cubik will work perfectly with your iMac. TVs with USB connections normally use the USB port for audio input. i.e. to connect other devices that can play through the TVs audio / home theater system. Please see the Bravia manual or contact Sony support to see if this model supports USB output.

Answer
cubik will perform well with any type and source of music. Internet is live streaming and providing your source has good signal strength (wireless connection) or a direct Ethernet connection, the cubik speakers should provide crystal clear sound.

This is a matter of opinion. These are inherently different in characteristics and price. The unique properties of the cubik include a chip incorporating a DSP, Digital Audio Amplifier and USB sound card. There is no analog input. All sound is taken from USB in the digital domain and hence there is no noise introduced through digital analog conversion.
