These are not really the same size class, and that is the honest framing here. The Canton Vento 30 ranks #94 of 214 bookshelf speakers by sound quality; the Canton Vento 100 ranks #118 of 226 floorstanding speakers by sound quality.
What the Canton Vento 30 does well: A larger Canton Vento 20 with a 174mm titanium graphite woofer and the same ceramic dome tweeter in a 36cm cabinet, for more bass and power handling. The tradeoff: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared with ranked speakers.
Why pick the Canton Vento 100: The flagship of the Vento line with two 220mm woofers. The tradeoff: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared with ranked speakers.
One note: the Canton Vento 100 is discontinued and no longer widely available new.
Buy the Canton Vento 30 for a bookshelf speaker, or the Canton Vento 100 for a floorstanding speaker instead.
About the ratings: neither speaker has been measured yet, so both ratings are estimated from measured siblings and predecessors (likely ranges: Canton Vento 30 3.6 to 4.4; Canton Vento 100 3.7 to 4.5). Treat this verdict as provisional.

Canton Vento 100 Discontinued Estimated eBay
Same family: the Canton Vento 20 (smaller bookshelf, estimated 4/5), the Canton Vento 30 (larger bookshelf, estimated 4/5), the Canton Vento 80 (smaller floorstanding, ranked lower, estimated 4/5), the Canton Vento 90 (smaller floorstanding, ranked higher, estimated 4.1/5) and the Canton Vento 50 (center, estimated 3.8/5).
Pros: The flagship of the Vento line with two 220mm woofers. Hi-Fi News measured bass to 34Hz (-3dB), and Enjoy the Music praised its bass authority and composure at volume. Measured sensitivity of 86dB.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared with ranked speakers. Hi-Fi News measured 86dB sensitivity with a 4.2 ohm minimum, so it needs a strong amplifier. It is discontinued, replaced by the Vento 101.
