I was wondering .. what has everyone done for a radio?
Factory? Or some third party?

A few of us have 2M & 10M radios on our tractors. I use the 2M since it has enough range to reach the house locally in the 40-miles around it. Cell coverage in rural areas is still a pain.

Yep…. Where I live with the hills, without a repeater, no radio will work.

I put in a factory radio,

The power plug and speakers connections and antenna plug is already in the headliner where the cut out is for the radio on the left side on my YT 359C. Works great.

And how is the sound? Can you enjoy it even with the engine and transmission noise being a constant?

The only issue I have with the factory is no blue tooth!

One of the best options for open cab tractors are AM/FM headset receivers. These can close off the outside noise a great deal.

I use a Dewalt headset.

Dewalt also has a commercial radio with a bluethooth headset. The radio can be placed anywhere really on the tractor out of the way, and the headset is nearly invisible a person forgets it's in your head.

Ear muff hearing protection is so hard in a hot environment. I have to run the AC just to keep the cabin cool in the summer when harvesting if I use muffs.
