Short answer: the SVS PC-2000 Pro is the newer model that replaces the SVS PC12-NSD, but only the SVS PC12-NSD has been measured and ranked so far, so this comparison is on specs and features rather than sound. The SVS PC12-NSD is discontinued, so it is now a used buy.
What the SVS PC-2000 Pro offers: Ported 12-inch driver in a cylinder cabinet that takes up less floor space than a box of similar output, driven by a 550W RMS (1,500W peak) Sledge amplifier.
What the SVS PC12-NSD brings: 12-inch ported cylinder with 400W RMS, 112.1dB average.
On paper: The SVS PC-2000 Pro is rated down to 16Hz against 130Hz, though makers quote these at different tolerances. The SVS PC-2000 Pro has more amplifier power, 550W against 400W.
Price: the SVS PC-2000 Pro lists at $1,099 and the SVS PC12-NSD at $999.
Buy the SVS PC12-NSD if you want a speaker whose sound quality has been measured and ranked.
Buy the SVS PC-2000 Pro if you want the newer model, with deeper rated bass and more power, and you can wait for measurements to confirm how it sounds.

SVS PC-2000 Pro: $1,099.00 Amazon eBay
Older models: the SVS PC-2000 (rated 3.7/5) and the SVS PC12-NSD (rated 3.6/5).
Pros: Ported 12-inch driver in a cylinder cabinet that takes up less floor space than a box of similar output, driven by a 550W RMS (1,500W peak) Sledge amplifier. SVS rates it at 16-290Hz within 3dB in its standard mode. App control and the SoundPath isolation system are included.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its output can’t be compared with ranked subwoofers. At 34.3 inches tall it is more conspicuous than a box subwoofer, and ported output does not solve room modes on its own.

SVS PC12-NSD: $999 Discontinued eBay
Newer model: the SVS PC-2000 Pro. It’s likely to perform similarly, though we don’t have measurements to confirm that yet.
Pros: 12-inch ported cylinder with 400W RMS, 112.1dB average. 3-foot tall design uses minimal floor space. Stereo outputs with fixed 80Hz high-pass filter. Smooth tight articulate bass both music and movies.
Cons: Discontinued.
Notes: “Cylinder” shape
