It depends on the book. Most I don't make unique voices for characters. I will make mental scenes but not always extremely elaborate, just enough that I get a better understanding of what I'm reading.
I only pick unique voices in rare cases, and when I do they are actors. I did it most recently with Foundations Edge/Earth and pictured Kurt Russell, Tom Cruise, Donald Southerland, Peter O'Toole, and Sean Bean as some of the characters.

It pads out the time on books that I am enjoying and dont want to end, and increases my enjoyment of the books. But like I said I don't do this very often, for the very reason that it adds extra time and sometimes the author is so poor at describing where characters are there's not much you have to go off of in scene creation. I would not recommend doing it with every book
