Oh boy..
First.. Do NOT connect power to them until we figure out what you are using....
Please post a link to the exact LED modules you are using..

From what I see on their website their clusters are just LEDs only and as such need to be powered by a constant current power supply not a constant voltage power supply..

A 48W 96W power supply is how one would typically specify a constant voltage power supply which cannot be used by itself without an upstream constant current module like a meanwell LDD,etc.. or their own blueacro drivers..
Like these..

Do you have those too?
