Can I run my mics from my ampliier? Is it better to have a mixer?

Yes. The mike jacks in a mixer would sound better than the ones in the player. My suggestion on soundcards is to get an outside USB Soundcard. I use a u-contol 202 that I got from musician's freind for $29. Best investment I ever did. The jacks out of that card is RCA so it should make hooking up to a mixer easy enough.
