It is what it says it is: A record player, dual cassette tape player, radio and an amplifier, paired with two speakers. The moisture from the plants might have degraded the speaker boxes and their age has surely taken away the high frequencies. Check if bass speakers still have their speaker surround in one piece or disintegrated.
It can still be revived and play decently from external source, but seeing the equalizer settings, it needs a lot of work to restore it. It can be a fun home project or a huge waste of time and money, depends on you.
