I have worked for many years with human hearing and audio perception. In my opinion, the bone conduction hypothesis seems complete and correct. It means that you cannot ever hear your own voice as it sounds to others. > Even with high-quality microphones and clean recordings High quality microphones and clean recordings don't compensate for the bone conduction, though. What you'd really need to do is to place a contact microphone against the bone in your inner ear. And even then, the results would not be identical because the microphone will necessarily be placed differently than the ossicles and other hearing-related ear structures. Also, what we hear is hugely influenced by our expectations. When you speak, you know what noises you're intending to make and will interpret the sounds you hear accordingly.
