As a native speaker, I �d say they are all they same sound... at least, they all sound the same to me and if there is a difference it �s almost imperceptible.

Yes, I guess they all sound about the same.. maybe if there �s another g in option D; ra(g)GED; it may sound differently...

I think they all sound mostly the same but managed has a SLIGHTLY different sound on the G but it �s not something I would have noticed if I was not looking for it! As a native speaker I really do not think it matters! |

If a a word functions as the past of a regular verb it is pronounced "djd", there`s no extra syllable from the bare infinitive form, that is ,you don`t pronounce the letter E.
But if it`s an adjective you do pronounce E, so you add one more syllable. "djed". I believe the one that may sound differently is changed, as in changed world, etc.... |

If you wanted to type ragGED (instead of raGED) this is the different sound.
Am I right?

In the case of "ragGED" - yes, it �s a different sound than "raGED".

Hi!
If all are past regular verbs, ALL OF THEM HAVE THE SAME PRONUNCIATION as they are part of the VOICED GROUP. The -ed of the regular past tense is pronounced as /d/ after a voiced sound. (sounds that are produced by vibration of the vocal chords). Regular verbs ending with the /g/ sound (as in judge, change, range, etc) are pronounced /d/
At least, it was I learnt at the university... a long time ago!!
