Well, as a natural result of the fact that it is my head that must provide the voices, they all tend to sound the same...

However, that doesn't mean that there isn't some variation. To my mind, there are different "groupings" of voices- possibly (but by no means investigatively) because of their writing styles.

Eomer of the Rohirrim and The Saucepan Man are, oddly enough, in the same group- with the Phantom. These gentlemen have good speaking voices- very clear, masculine but not overly deep, and with a wide range of wit.

Lhunardawen, to add to my already strange perception of her, has a rather deep voice for a lady, rather Galadriel-esque in that matter. She doesn't speak too loudly- except maybe to Nilp.

Fordhim, Davem, Bethberry, Mark/Helen- all heavyweights of the great debate-ory threads have rather identical, rather clipped, non gender specific voices- at least in Books. Outside of there, Fordhim and Davem rather resemble the Eomer/Sauceman/Phantom voice.

Alatar and Mormegil have been singled out as having the most distinctive "American" accents.

Lalwende speaks in cultured, slightly eccentric, British tones. A female Bilbo, if you will.
