I think private messaging makes an interesting point, but I'm more concerned with hearing (or noticing that your hear) the voice in your head saying the words.

In other words, even if you are making incredibly small movements with your lips/throat, can you reduce only the subjectively observable mental voice, and how can it affect your reading speed or experience.
