10 watts as in it's power rating? I haven't really seen anything bigger than a watt, so those must look strange and big.
Ten watt wirewound resistors are fairly standard in speaker crossover networks. Higher wattage ratings are used for the resistors in certain parts of the woofer crossovers in pro-type speakers that are intended to be driven continuously at high power levels. For example, a 100 watt resistor is recommended for use in the impedance compensation circuit of the three pi speaker.
